Aquamarine

With its delicate light blue to greenish-blue hue, very high transparency, and intense brilliance, this natural and untreated 1.01 ct aquamarine possesses a particularly clear and vibrant appearance. Glassy reflections - which appear slightly violet-blue in places - lend it additional depth and a delicate, cool character.

Cut from a 6.27 ct rough crystal, the stone features a small natural inclusion at the edge.  Overall, it remains subtle and hardly detracts from the aquamarine’s high transparency or its intense play of light.

Interesting Facts About Aquamarine

Aquamarine is the blue to bluish-green variety of the mineral beryl. Its color spectrum ranges from a very delicate, pale blue to intense, deep blue hues. Aquamarines with a rich, pure blue color are often referred to in the trade as “Santa Maria aquamarines” and are among the most sought-after examples of this gemstone.

Natural inclusions are characteristic features of a natural gemstone. They can provide clues about its natural origin and help distinguish it from synthetic or imitation materials. At the same time, clarity - along with color, cut, and carat weight - is one of the key factors that determine a gemstone’s quality and value.

High-quality aquamarines also attract the attention of collectors and buyers who view rare colored gemstones as long-term assets. Stones with an intense blue color, high transparency, very good clarity, and an excellent cut are in particularly high demand. Exceptional specimens of this quality are available in limited quantities and have attracted increasing market attention in recent years. However, future performance cannot be predicted and always depends on quality, rarity, and demand.
