Crystal Tip:

Aquamarine is a blue or blue-green variety of beryl, a beryllium aluminum silicate mineral with a hardness of 7.5 to 8. Its crystal system is hexagonal (trigonal) and its pigment is iron. History records its first use in Greece between 300 and 500 B.C. Its name, derived from the Latin meaning ‘water of the sea’ is an apt description of the color and clarity of fine Aquamarine crystals. Aquamarine has been mined in Brazil, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Australia, Africa and the United States.

In ancient lore, Aquamarine was believed to be a treasure of mermaids, and it was used as a talisman to bring good luck, fearlessness and protection to sailors. It was also valued as a stone of eternal youth and happiness. [Source: The book of Stones pg.45]
