Aquamarine
Aquamarine “water of the sea” a beryl family crystal whose cyan blue colours inspire new fashion designs read more in our blog.
YAN Gemstones – Aquamarine
The Gemstone
A gemstone whose names derives to water of the sea, Aquamarine is a much loved gemstone of the Beryl gemstone group – a valuable crystal family whose members include famous beautiful green emerald and increasingly popular pink morganite.
Though sharing the crystal structure of the beryl family Aquamarine differs most visibly with its dazzling cyan blue colouring of which the deeper hues are most prized by collectors and from which the colour of “aquamarine” is directly attributable.
Aside from a lighter colour that is easier to match with bright clothing and fashion designs it has other traits rendering it more desirable in some ways than emerald.
A gemstone whose typical quality is much higher than emerald, aquamarine can be found in fine quality large crystal inclusions in deposits around the world most notably in Brazil whose large carat gemstones decorate the “Brazil tiara” of the Queen of England.
Aquamarine’s lower number of inclusions make this a semi-precious stone that is less prone to fracturing than the notably fragile Emerald and more suitable to wear especially in rounded bead form.
With less market pressure to produce good quality finds buyers in developed markets can find good quality faceted gemstones that are naturally sourced beautiful examples of larger carat size.
Aquamarine and our Design
The clear sea blue complements well with lighter colour hues such as our stunning pink rose quartz combination where the light colours co-ordinate to express our maiden’s heart concept, a youthfulness of pink hue and a purity from the clear blue of the aquamarine.
Many of these current designs carry a sea side feeling of fresh clean atmosphere from the sky colour cyan simultaneously matched with light blue’s of the ocean and carrying the lighter tones of matching hues perhaps from a bright sunny day.
With such clear colour palette choices these jewellery pieces light up clothing and character radiating bright lightness into clothing and style.
Also light in tone though different in styling is our series matching aquamarine to the beautiful cherry blossom agate, in the above piece the reflections from the faceted surfaces of the ball cut beads of agate enhance the light coming from the aquamarine.
This series of elegant bracelets and necklaces though lightened by the cool blue of the aquamarine offers warmer toning from the cherry blossom agate balanced in tone with lightening design choices such as above.
When matched to clothing this is a versatile gemstone of many uses, our photo collection includes many examples of pink and rose coloured dresses where the cool blue of aquamarine draws more attention to the beautiful and coquettish drape of pink frills and drape of fabric in lovely dresses.
With more formal workwear pink clothing as above the blue coloured gemstone lightens the pink and adds a slightly playful maiden character, while simple white dress is made special though not too overdone with the addition of these classic matching bi tones.
Aquamarine and Fashion Culture
With positive traits of flexible colour matching, high natural quality and beautiful sea blue tones Aquamarine directly vies for attention with emerald, appearing in exquisite large carat faceted ring’s and necklaces that show off silver settings contrasted to exquisite blue cyan hue.
Being naturally less included than other beryl family members high quality and high carat size finds of this gem are sometimes carved into individual designer pieces from seashells to figurines, while the naturally included crystal material that is used for cabochons and beads preserve the beautiful colour which offers us a versatile colour in our own bead necklace and bracelet designs.
Of the more famous examples of Aquamarine in cultural fashion is that of Queen Elizabeth’s “Brazil Tiara” – a tall crown of Brazilian gifted aquamarine and precious metal and a beautiful example of the natural clarity of large sized crystals.
Among modern fashion designers today the polished irregular shaped baroque stones are a popular material in a variety of new lifestyle bracelets and necklaces conveying life full of energy and positivity.
To a coveter of rarer gemstones perhaps emerald will be the more sought after of the beryl family crystals but as a gemstone that makes a more versatile and real contribution to fashion design Aquamarine is a gem that will always shine in any collection as clear as a new sun rising over the cool blue sea.
