Belonging to the beryl family, aquamarine is revered not only for its aesthetic appeal but also for its historical significance, symbolic meanings, and healing properties.

The History and Legends of Aquamarine
Aquamarine has a rich and storied history that spans across cultures and civilizations. In ancient times, it was believed to be a treasure of mermaids and was used by sailors as a talisman to bring good luck, ensure safe voyages, and protect against storms. The Romans associated aquamarine with Neptune, the god of the sea, and believed it could calm rough waters and protect against ocean dangers.
In medieval Europe, aquamarine was often worn as an amulet to protect against poison, cure ailments, and promote clarity in communication. It was also thought to bring peace and reconciliation between adversaries, leading to its use in resolving conflicts and soothing relationships.
Over time, aquamarine became a symbol of youth, health, and hope. It was believed to promote harmony, both in marriage and within the individual spirit. Renaissance and Baroque artists, inspired by its clear blue hue, used the stone in ornate jewelry and as a symbol of purity and creativity.
