am Aquamarine, and I capture the beauty of the sea. Neptune, the King of the Sea, gave me as his gift to the mermaids, and from then on, I have brought love to all who have owned me.

     Aquamarines are found in a range of blue shades, from the palest pastel to greenish-blue to a deep blue. While the choice of color is largely a matter of taste, the deeper blue gems are more rare. No matter what size, color or shape of Aquamarine you may desire, your jeweler will be able to help you obtain the perfect gem. Remember that Aquamarine is a pastel gemstone, and while color can be quite intense in larger gemstones, the smaller Aquamarines are often less vivid.

     This elegant colored gemstone is the birthstone of March and is the symbol of youth, hope, health and fidelity.
     Aquamarines are mined in a number of exotic places including Nigeria, Madagascar, Zambia, Pakistan and Mozambique, but most of the gemstones available today come from Brazil.
