The story: Aquamarine, a light blue gemstone that evokes the crystal clear waters of the sea, takes its name from the Latin “aqua marina”, meaning sea water. Historically, aquamarine has been known since ancient times, prized for its beauty and soothing properties. The ancients believed that this gem was a talisman for sailors, ensuring a safe and peaceful journey across the tumultuous oceans. This is how the stone gradually became the stone of lovers, as it is said to promote appeasement and communication in couples, thus guiding them to weather the storms. Today, aquamarine remains a prized stone for its soothing undertones and timeless connection to the mysteries of the ocean and serenity.
