About the Item

Loose Aquamarine Weight: 2.95 Carat Dimension: 10 x 7.4 x 5.9 Mm Colour : Pale Blue Origin: Shigar Valley, Pakistan Treatment: Non Certificate : On Demand Shape: Cushion Aquamarine is a captivating gemstone known for its enchanting blue-green hues reminiscent of the clear waters of the ocean. The name "aquamarine" is derived from the Latin words "aqua" and "marina," meaning water and sea, respectively. This gem belongs to the beryl family, sharing its lineage with emeralds and morganite. The distinctive color of aquamarine ranges from pale blue to deep blue-green, and it is often associated with qualities such as tranquility, courage, and clarity. Legend has it that aquamarine was treasured by sailors as a talisman for safe travels and protection against the perils of the sea. Aquamarine's stunning color is a result of iron impurities within the crystal structure. The most prized specimens exhibit a pure, intense blue without any green undertones. Brazil is a major source of high-quality aquamarine, but deposits can also be found in other locations, including Madagascar, Nigeria, and Afghanistan. Throughout history, aquamarine has been cherished for its supposed metaphysical properties. It is believed to enhance communication, intuition, and spiritual awareness while promoting a sense of calm and balance. In ancient times, people thought that wearing aquamarine would protect them from toxins and soothe ailments related to the throat and respiratory system. The gem has also left its mark in the world of fashion and jewelry. Aquamarine's versatility allows it to be fashioned into various cuts, from traditional emerald cuts to more contemporary designs. Its popularity in engagement rings has grown, symbolizing enduring love and commitment. Whether worn as a piece of jewelry or admired in its raw, crystalline form, aquamarine continues to captivate with its soothing beauty and rich symbolism, making it a gemstone that transcends mere adornment to become a timeless expression of elegance and significance.
