 Ten Reasons You Should Fall In Love with March Birthstone

 

Peaceful and enthralling are just two of the many words that come to mind when considering aquamarine, the lovely March birthstone. The aquamarine is a gemstone that never fails to enthrall. It is just like the calm of the sea and the beauty of the cool blue sky. This gemstone, with its brilliant blue hue, is well-known among modern jewelry designers. Take a look at some of the fascinating facts about the March birthstone that make you fall in love with it.

Aquamarine’s Name

Aquamarine is a blend of two Latin words: aqua, which means "water," and marina, which means "sea." This lovely icy blue gemstone is the March birthstone and is also a recommended gem for the 16th and 19th wedding anniversaries.

Legends and Myth

This gemstone is said to protect mariners from the harsh currents of the open sea due to its name. Wearing aquamarine was thought to increase intelligence, courage, happiness, wisdom, and youthfulness. Aquamarine Rings are now considered a symbol of friendship, faithfulness, and courage. Knowing this, the gem is thought to rekindle the love of married couples and, in folklore, render soldiers untouchable and bring victory in battles and legal disputes.

Enrichments

Heat treatments are mainly used to convert material that is too green into a more acceptable light blue. In the jewelry industry, this treatment is permanent and accepted. However, if the saturated light blue color is found without heat treatment, its value will be higher.

Properties

Along with morganite and emerald, aquamarine is a member of the Beryl family. Iron is responsible for the light blue to a greenish-blue hue. It has long pencil-like hexagonal formations in the host rock for its crystal structure. Large pieces of rough can produce large gemstones, which can be faceted, cabochons, beads, or carvings. It is rated 7.5-8 on the Moh's hardness scale and is soft enough that it cannot be worn as a ring or bracelet every day, but it can be worn as earrings, a pendant, or a brooch.

Designers thought

Designers enjoy working with aquamarine because of its properties and crystal structure which results in a one-of-a-kind and wearable jewelry piece. Faceting an aquamarine in step cuts is a common technique used by gem cutters to highlight the gem's fine clarity and transparency. Many jewelers mount the gem in a yellow gold design to bring out a tinge of green in the gemstone or in white metal to highlight the desired light blue color.

Perfect Choice for Everyone

Aquamarine's stunning beauty has made it a popular choice for embellishing a wide range of jewelry, particularly earrings, Aquamarine Pendant, Aquamarine Rings, and bracelets. In addition to its enchantment, this gem has exceptional durability, making it a prized possession. Aquamarines aren't just for people born in March. This captivating gemstone is ideal for anyone who wishes to flaunt its aesthetic and brilliance.

Here is how to style

Even the most ostentatious aquamarine piece can appear extremely elegant and sophisticated. This gemstone can be worn with any outfit. The aquamarine jewelry will stand out against a black, red, or brown dress. Aquamarines combined with gleaming diamonds create a luxurious combination. An aquamarine and diamond cocktail ring can make a bold statement at gala events. On workdays, a pair of aquamarine studs will add adequate sparkle with a hint of blue to your look.

Easy to care

Scrub the gemstone and the mounting with warm water, mild dish soap, and a toothbrush. If the gemstone does not have any liquid-filled fractures, ultrasonic cleaning and steaming are acceptable.

Easy to Choose

Aquamarine comes in a variety of sizes and shapes, making it an excellent choice for custom order designs. The American Gem Trade Association (AGTA) states that "the darker and more saturated the color of an aquamarine is, the rarer and thus more valuable it is." Large size, saturated light blue hue, and clean transparent clarity command higher prices and are thus considered rare.

Beneficial for students

Aquamarine, which is associated with the 'Throat Chakra,' assists students and teachers in letting go of their inhibitions while presenting on stage. It calms the audience and stage fright while allowing orators to speak clearly. These gentle crystals also improve social interaction and communication between family and friends.
