A Gemstone with a Rich History
Aquamarine, with its serene blue-green hues, has long been associated with the sea. Its name comes from the Latin words aqua marina, meaning “water of the sea.” Ancient sailors believed this gemstone was a protective talisman, keeping them safe from treacherous waters and guiding them home. Some even thought aquamarine was the treasure of mermaids, carrying mystical properties.
In medieval Europe, aquamarine was used to promote clarity and wisdom, believed to help leaders and warriors make sound decisions. Ancient healers also revered it for its calming and purifying properties, using it to reduce stress and encourage emotional balance.
