March Birthstone is Aquamarine.
Literally translating to ‘sea water’, aquamarine is colored by iron and occurs naturally as a pale, bluish-green color. In the 19th century, blue-green aquamarines were preferred but now, stones are usually heat treated to remove the green hue, which produces a purer blue color. The more intense the blue color, the higher the value.
Aquamarine is in the Beryl family which includes these other amazing stones: Emerald, Morganite, and Heliodor.
Beryl is often found in granites and granitic pegmatites but it can also be found in metamorphic rocks or in the veins and cavities of limestones and marbles.
