Explore our selection of natural aquamarines in serene sea-blue hues. Known for exceptional clarity and brilliance, aquamarine is a beloved choice for custom jewelry.
Aquamarine, a member of the beryl family alongside emerald and morganite, captivates with its clear, serene blue-to-blue-green color reminiscent of tropical ocean waters. Brazil is the world's leading source of fine aquamarines, though excellent material also comes from Pakistan, Mozambique, and Nigeria.
Aquamarines are prized for their excellent clarity (inclusions are rare), good hardness (7.5–8 Mohs), and large crystal sizes that allow for impressive faceted stones. They make stunning centerpieces for rings, pendants, and earrings.
Deeply saturated "Santa Maria" blues — named after a historic Brazilian mine — command the highest prices. Medium-blue stones with strong saturation and no grey modifier are also highly prized.
Most aquamarines are heat treated to reduce any greenish secondary color and enhance the pure blue. This is a stable, permanent treatment and universally accepted in the trade.
