Aquamarine with Quartz and Feldspar

Crystal clear waters in the palm of your hand. Aquamarine’s name comes from the Latin word for seawater, and was said to calm waves and keep sailors safe at sea. A green-blue variety of the mineral beryl, is one of the most popular gems on the market due to its ocean-like color. Raw Aquamarine, as seen here in this specimen, has a hexagonal, column-like crystal structure.
