Multi Aquamarine is a natural gemstone, and the term aquamarine came from the Latin term “water of the sea”. Aquamarine gemstones are transparent to translucent stones in higher grades and range from cerulean blue to light blue. Whereas, in lower grades, Aquamarine is transparent to opaque, and its usually light blue, yellow, and green with gray and white inclusions. Multi Aquamarine is also a popular jewelry material for chains, pendants, rings, bracelets, etc.
What it makes
Tear drops are used for earrings, pendant clusters, the front of a necklace. Measured width by length, e.g. 4x6mm; usually drilled top-drilled, side to side. More about tear drops.
Blue beryl, clear and steady.
Strung in a line, aquamarine shows a clear, even blue that reads as water. Faceted rondelles throw quick, bright glints; smooth ovals carry the color in steady blocks. Milky strands glow soft. Mossy strands hold fine green threads and flecks that hint at the rock it grew in. On the neck the hue stays light, not heavy, and plays well with silver or gold. Makers reach for it for March gifts, bridal work, and pieces that want a calm blue.
In crystal tradition, aquamarine is March's birthstone and a sailor's stone, said to calm waves and help keep seafarers safe. It is also said to brighten marriages and bring happiness to partners. In Western lore its sea color links it to safe travel over water. Wider beryl lore holds that it brings protection in battle or litigation, makes the wearer amiable and unconquerable, and quickens the intellect. Modern custom names aquamarine as the 19th wedding anniversary gem. These are long-held beliefs about meaning, passed along with the stone.
