About the Item

Origin: Minas Gerais, Brazil The name aquamarine comes from the Latin, aqua marinā, sea water. Its name refers to its color. Brazil stands out among the largest producers of this mineral, since it has several mines in the country, especially in Minas Gerais. Aquamarine veins can also be found on African soil: Nigeria, Madagascar, Pakistan, Zimbabwe and Namibia. During the Middle Ages, it was believed that this stone acted as an antidote to any poison. In ancient Egypt, aquamarine beads were inserted between the bandages of mummies so that they would have protection when they passed to the afterlife. Because of its color, aquamarine was formerly known as the stone of the sailor, who offered it to Poseidon, to protect them during the voyage. In this collection we present a Aquamarine mounted in original design acrylic base.
