Aquamarine, Latin for 'Aqua Marina' or 'Sea Water' is a blue Beryl. They form hexagonal crystals in a host rock.
The beautiful sea-like hues of the aquamarine gemstone are a fitting tribute to those born in March. With Spring dawning, the green-blue shades feel like a reawakening; a reminder of warmer, brighter days ahead.
The gems themselves represent happiness and hope, and were believed to protect those at sea, which might explain the name.
