Aquamarine in history
For centuries, aquamarine has been thought to bring youth and health. It's the colour of water and the sky and is said to represent eternal life and energy. Aquamarine means ‘seawater’ and is found in Sri Lanka, Brazil, Madagascar and the USA. The pale blue, transparent crystal is a member of the Beryl family. Its colour, sometimes bluish green, is caused by iron oxides within the chemical makeup of the stone.
