Aquamarine Birthstone (March Birthstone)

Description
Aquamarine comes from the Beryl family, which is also where the precious Emerald was derived from. The stones are very different in appearance with the aquamarine having clear transparency where the darker emerald shows up as hazy. Aquamarines get their colour from the impurities of the iron found within the beryl stone, hence the wonderful spectrum of colour intensities of the aquamarine.
