Today I am going to talk to you about one of the most beautiful, elegant and often undervalued gemstones: aquamarine.
Aquamarine is the “sister” of the emerald, which we do not hesitate to appreciate! Both are beryls with the same hardness, seven and a half on the Mohs scale.
Like seawater, aquamarine is blue and blue-green in color. In the 19th century, its greenish blue color was the most appreciated, but currently the intense sky blue is the most valued and expensive! The better its color, its cleanness of tone and transparency, the higher its value.
