Description
This listing features a stunning Aquamarine crystal, a gem-quality variety of the Beryl mineral group, sourced from Madagascar. Known for its calming blue-green hues, aquamarine is treasured both for its aesthetic beauty and metaphysical properties.
Aquamarine derives its name from the Latin aqua marina, meaning ‘sea water,’ and is associated with tranquility, clarity, and courage. Its gentle colours are due to trace amounts of iron within the beryl structure.
