Aquamarine is one such fascinating variety of the species Beryl. Aquamarine derives its color from the chemical agent iron, whereas emerald exhibits a rich green hue because of the coloring agent chromium trapped in its crystal structure.。

The fact, fiction, and love behind every gemstone makes it fascinating not only for its beautiful crystal forms but also from an historical perspective. Since the name aquamarine comes from the Latin and Greek words for Water of the Sea, it has long been recognized by sailors as the gemstone which possesses calming effects and aids those who travel by water.

The most prized aquamarines, however, boast a pure blue which is neither too pale nor too green. As the traditional birthstone for March, Aquamarine displays colors reminiscent of those reflected in many oceans and lakes around the world. It can range from nearly colorless to greenish- blue to blue-green.

Aquamarine is generally found in nearly flawless, large crystal forms and is thus tougher than emerald. Not all aquamarines have a pure crystal-like blue hue; stones with an inferior color are often heat-treated to reduce the coloring agent that causes a greenish cast. This heat treatment, which is a permanent effect, results in a more pure blue color and thus commands a higher price.

Light-colored gems, like aquamarines, require frequent cleaning. Thus, one must remember to clean aquamarine jewelry by scrubbing with a soft brush and commercial jewelry cleaner in order to maintain the stone's full brilliance, luster and color.
