Aquamarine, an alternate March birthstone, has long been considered the symbol of happiness and everlasting youth. In the Middle Ages, it was supposed to give the wearer insight and foresight, and to cure insomnia. In 1910 a Aquamarine crystal was found in Brazil that weighed 243 pounds! It was 19 inches long and 16 inches wide, and the British Museum of Natural History has a flawless, sea-green aqua which weighs 880 carats.
Our aquamarine gems stones aren't that large but we do have some beautiful stones suitable for mountings. Please stop in and see our large selection of loose gems.
