As the frosty winter comes to a thaw, March Babies turn the season over with Crystal Blue Aquamarine!  Colors ranging from a clear blue summer sky to a deeper Caribbean blue ocean.  Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…. Are you ready for it?  I AM!! 



Just the name – “Aquamarine” – makes me feel like I’m on vacation, sunning myself on a warm beach.  The name 'Aquamarine' was derived from an old Latin expression which meant 'seawater'.


In the same beryl family as emerald and morganite, aquamarine shows the same fantastic properties and being that it is a 7.5 to 8 on the Mohs hardness scale, it is very wearable. 





Whether you choose the cross, the traditionally faceted aqua ring or the milky aqua ring with the stunning pop of iolite stones on the band, I know you will love these additions to your jewelry wardrobe!


We don’t get to see this clear, sparkly beauty often and March always provides that window of opportunity to look into the world of Aqua.  Enjoy these stones, no matter whether they are faceted or cabochon.



Delve into the bright, brisk blue and thaw out…… See you on the Beach!!!!


Happy Birthday March Babies!
