All About Aquamarine - Kat Cadegan

 

 

March is the month when we notice the season beginning to turn. In between those lingering cold days, we’re greeted with bursts of sunshine, our minds turning to the excitement of spring’s arrival. We soak in the warmth, feeling it fill us with the energy and fresh start that comes with a new season. 

The beautiful blue of the aquamarine stone is the perfect hue to represent this month. Aquamarine, the official March birthstone, represents happiness, good health, and everlasting youth - too similar to how we feel when the sun shows itself after a long winter in the mountains.

Aquamarine Meaning and Symbolism 

The aquamarine birthstone is reminiscent of the most refreshing waters you’ve experienced. Its name, a combination of two Latin words, reflects the dreamy clear blue colour of the stone. Together, aqua (meaning water) and marina (meaning sea) translate to the colour of the sea. This gem is the perfect companion for those who lust after the ocean and need a reminder of the endless open blue it holds.

The aquamarine stone is in the mineral beryl’s family and is related to the deep green emerald. Its colour can range from pale blue to aqua green. Here at Kat Cadegan Jewellery, we work with small suppliers to source sustainable gemstones. Our aquamarine stones come from a small, trusted supplier we have worked with for years. Each one is beautifully unique and custom-cut for us to create these pieces just for you.
