Aquamarine Diamond Ring in 14K White Gold

Inspired by the Calm Beauty of the Sea

There is something unmistakably serene about aquamarine. Its delicate blue hue evokes calm seawater, while its name comes from the Latin words for “sea water.”

At the center of this ring is a 1.96 carat oval aquamarine measuring 9 x 7mm, accented by .10 carats of natural mined round brilliant-cut diamonds carefully paved to add a flash of brilliance. Set in 14K white gold, the design features a distinctive squared-off shank that adds clean, contemporary lines to this aquamarine’s natural beauty.

The Story Behind Aquamarine

Aquamarine belongs to the beryl family, making it a close gemstone relative of emerald. While emerald is celebrated for its rich greens, aquamarine is known for its tranquil range of light blue to blue-green hues.

For centuries, aquamarine has been associated with sailors and the sea. Legends tell of aquamarine originating from the treasure chests of mermaids, while mariners carried the gemstone as a protective talisman against the dangers and unpredictable nature of the ocean.

Whether you are drawn to its mythology or simply captivated by its color, aquamarine carries a remarkable sense of place. It feels like a gemstone shaped by the imagination of the sea itself.
