1.80ctw Aquamarine Pear Cut Loose Gemstone 11x6mm

Aquamarine gets its name from the Latin words aqua (water) and marina (sea), a nod to its watery blue-green hues, and pear-cut versions of the stone naturally mimic a single teardrop or a drop of ocean water

Historically, sailors carried aquamarine—including elongated teardrop shapes—as talismans to calm rough seas, ensure safe voyages, and protect against drowning

Clocking in at 7.5 to 8 on the Mohs hardness scale, aquamarine is tough enough for daily wear

As the official birthstone for March and the 12th or 19th wedding anniversary gem, a loose pear-cut stone is a popular pick for custom-designed rings and teardrop pendants.
