Sea Blue
Aquamarine
Aquamarine round beads in soft sea-blue tones with cloudy natural texture and glossy highlights. A calm, clear stone traditionally associated with easeful communication.
Aquamarine is an igneous mineral, Mohs hardness 7.5.
Where it’s found: Aquamarine comes mainly from Brazil, with other important sources in Madagascar, Pakistan, Nigeria and Mozambique.
Why the colour: It is a type of beryl, and its sea-blue comes from traces of iron.
Good to know: Aquamarine is often gently heated to remove greenish tones and leave a purer blue. This is a stable, widely accepted treatment.
Across traditions, aquamarine is worn as a reminder of calm, communication, clarity and balance. We share these correspondences as cultural tradition, not medical claim.
Often gifted to those born under aquarius and pisces.
