Aquamarine Jewellery FAQs

What does aquamarine symbolise in fine jewellery?
They are synonymous with creativity, protection, communication, clarity, youthful energy, and lasting love. Birthstone for the month of March, aquamarines are also thought to bring happiness in marriage. This gemstone’s name comes from the Latin for seawater. Ancient mariners claimed the gem would calm waves and keep sailors safe at sea.
Are aquamarines durable enough for daily wear?
Yes, aquamarines are durable and can be worn daily. As with all gemstones care should always be taken, particularly when worn in rings, to avoid knocks and contact with heat or chemicals that could cause damage.
Has Garrard created aquamarine jewellery for royalty?
Yes, notably Queen Elizabeth II’s Brazilian Aquamarine Tiara. Towering and majestic, it showcases an impressive collection of aquamarines, gifts from the President of Brazil, presented on behalf of the Brazilian people over 15 years. Commissioned by Queen Elizabeth II in 1957, the jewel was later returned to Garrard in 1971 for some significant enhancements, including the addition of a large aquamarine at the front of the tiara. You can find out more in our heritage timeline.
What shades of aquamarine are most valuable?
The higher the saturation of colour, the higher the value. Aquamarines of an intense deep blue are most highly prized due to their rarity, often referred to as Santa Maria in colour.
How does aquamarine compare to sapphire in fine jewellery?
Sapphire is classed as a precious gemstone, while aquamarine is classed as semi-precious, making blue sapphire fine jewellery more valuable. Rich with status and significance, blue sapphires have long been the choice of Royalty and is a stone that Garrard has been renowned for as the makers of Princess Diana’s sapphire engagement ring. Of course, jewellery is a deeply personal choice. Value also lies in emotional weight. Aquamarine can feel much lighter and youthful, giving its wearer a sense of freedom and vitality. They offer a vivid and fresh hue of blue that’s energising and alive with inspiration. This makes them a brilliant choice for self-gifting or for love in non-traditional forms, existing within the blue spectrum of colour while commanding their own fluid, unique realm. Aquamarines feature across Garrard’s fine jewellery collections and have been chosen for engagement rings, as well as occasion jewellery.
Is aquamarine linked to any specific wedding anniversaries?
Yes, aquamarine is linked to the 19th wedding anniversary and as a gift for new brides. It is commonly used to celebrate these milestones because it symbolises hope, fidelity, strong communication and happiness. In many ways it’s also a personal milestone jewel, chosen to mark moments of transformation or around challenging periods in life, in line with its symbolism of clarity, fluidity, courage, youthful energy, protection and safe passage.
Which zodiac signs can wear aquamarine?
Pisces and Aquarius are most strongly linked to aquamarine. With its water-like properties this gem is an ideal choice for any Water sign. But it can be worn by any star sign, helping to enhance communication, courage, and emotional balance. Regardless of zodiac sign or birth month, many form an instant attachment to this tranquil and serene jewel.

In 1957, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II commissioned Garrard to create a majestic tiara in aquamarines and diamonds, to match a necklace and earrings given by the President of Brazil to mark her coronation in 1953. With their beautiful, cool translucency, icy blue aquamarines quickly became a Garrard signature.

“With their light, bright colour and wonderful clarity, aquamarines are such a joyful gem to wear.”
