Origin & History

Aquamarine is found in a variety of rock types that contain beryllium. However, it is rare because beryllium only occurs in sufficient amounts in a few places. Beryl crystals are hexagonal, with either a flat or prism-shaped top. Aquamarine crystal hardness is 7.5-8, just below topaz and corundum.

Different generations have attributed various importance and ideologies to wearing aquamarine jewelry.

The origin of the sacredness of the Aquamarine gemstone came from the ancient Roman Empire due to beliefs that the Roman god of the sea, Neptune, made the precious Birthstone out of seawater. The Romans believed in its protection at war and during long voyages.

During the Christian Era, Apostle St Thomas, a disciples of Jesus was identified with this gemstone because he is the saint of Mariners, he made long voyages by sea as far as India and its environs. Some Christians once believed aquamarine jewelry provided safety on the seas, just like their Roman ancestors.

In the Medieval Era, the stone was believed to rejuvenate the love between married couples. Medieval thinkers considered Aquamarine to be the key to winning either in battle or in the courtroom.

In the Middle Ages, diviners often used aquamarines (also known as “the magic mirror”) to foresee the future. It was also cut as a crystal ball and was thought to be a superior stone for fortune telling through its power of revelation.

Elites during this age continued their obsession for the Gemstone and was rumoured to have protected the wearer of the aquamarine necklace and aquamarine ring from death due to poison, which was a prominent cause of death at that time. 

Due to this, many Eastern European rulers purchased an aquamarine ring to wear as a symbol of protection, while other forms of aquamarine jewelry was popular among ruling eastern European families, most notably, the Czech crown jewels.

In 1723, Aquamarine was first discovered far from the sea in Siberia and by the end of the 18th century, there was an influx of the Gemstone sent to Western Europe.

During the 1804 coronation ceremony of Napoleon, the French leader’s ceremonial uniform included cape fasteners embedded with aquamarine jewelry.

In 1910, the largest weighing Aquamarine was found in Brazil. It yielded over 200,000 carats after cutting to several gemstones.

More recently in 2003, Dark blue beryl and Aquamarine were discovered at the True Blue showing in the southern Yukon Territory, Canada.

From the above historical background, we can conclude that the Aquamarine gemstone spans across different generations portraying an ageless precious jewel.
