Aquamarine

With its exceptionally beautiful, clear blue hue, very high transparency, and intense brilliance, this natural, untreated 1.83 ct aquamarine possesses a distinctly elegant and vibrant radiance. Light blue, almost glass-like reflections lend it additional depth and an intense, cool play of light.

Cut from a 6.85 ct rough crystal, the stone features a delicate, elongated natural characteristic along its edge that is barely noticeable at first glance but becomes visible only upon closer inspection. As a result, the aquamarine’s overall very clear and transparent appearance remains clearly in the foreground.

Particularly beautiful is its vibrant interplay of color and light. Depending on the viewing angle and lighting, the blue appears in slightly varying intensities, while bright, glass-like reflections dance across the stone, lending it a pronounced sense of depth.

The oval cut enhances this effect with a balanced, multifaceted structure. When moved, the stone displays a strong sparkle, combining its clear blue color with a very open, luminous appearance.

From the same rough crystal, another pear-cut aquamarine weighing 1.00 ct was also created - AQ28/2. Both sister stones share a common origin, yet each displays its own unique character due to their different cut shapes and the sections of the original crystal from which they were cut.

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.
