Aquamarine really does seem to have captured the lucid blue of the oceans and according to old stories originated in the treasure chest of fabulous mermaids, and has been regarded as the sailors' lucky stone. Its name is derived from the Latin 'aqua' (water) and 'mare' (sea). It is said that its strengths are developed to their best advantage when it is placed in water which is bathed in sunlight. However, it is surely better still to wear aquamarine, since according to the old traditions, this promises a happy marriage and is said to bring the woman who wears it joy and wealth into the bargain.

These are well cut, and throw beautiful fire.  They are hung from 14k Gold Leverback Earrings, and are set in a form of bezel mounting, that gives you the most show of stone for the least expense in gold, and yet is still a good, well built mounting.
