About Aquamarine
Aquamarine is the green-blue to blue variety of the mineral beryl, usually a light, pastel greenish blue. Its name comes from the Latin for 'seawater'.
- Birthstone
- March
- Hardness
- 7.5–8 (Mohs)
- Everyday wear
- Aquamarine is durable enough for everyday jewellery if protected from scratches and hard knocks.
- Care
- Warm, soapy water is always safe; ultrasonic and steam cleaners are usually fine unless the stone has liquid inclusions or fractures. Avoid exposing it to heat.
- Meaning and tradition
- In folklore, sailors believed aquamarine would calm the waves and keep them safe at sea, and it was thought to bring happiness in marriage. Its clear, water-like colour is said to symbolise purity of spirit, and it is the gem for 19th wedding anniversaries.
Meanings and traditions are beliefs people have held about these stones, not proven effects, and are no substitute for medical advice.
