    The highest quality aquamarine is determined by a range of factors. The Four Cs of selecting the perfect diamond, which are color, clarity, cut and carat, also apply to aquamarines. Aquamarine is a precious gemstone from the mineral beryl family. Aquamarine crystals are usually transparent and range in color from greenish-blue to a vivid sky blue. Sometimes, the greener aquamarines are heat-treated so that they develop a bluer hue. This will often add value to the stone as blue aquamarines are more desired than green. Professionals recommend that you consult with a jeweler or gemologist in order to best determine which aquamarine will meet your needs as well as align with your budget. On 1stDibs, find a selection of aquamarine jewelry from some of the world’s top sellers.
