Those born in March are lucky enough to have two birthstones – aquamarine and bloodstone. Aquamarine is the more commonly accepted birthstone, and its feminine pastel colouring and durability mean it is a popular choice for jewellery, particularly rings.
Pretty in pastel
Aquamarine is said to symbolise beauty, honesty and loyalty, which makes it a great choice if you’re giving jewellery as a special gift. Its pale greenish-blue colour means it looks stunning set in silver or white gold; you can find deep teal-hued gems, but it is the vivid blue aquamarine that is the most highly sought after.
Brazilian treasures
Mined in Russia, India, Pakistan, Nigeria and the US, it is possible to find a variety of different shades of aquamarine when shopping for jewellery here in the UK, although the most valuable gems are said to come from Brazil.
Aquamarine rings are always a popular choice and Pandora’s Aquamarine March Birthstone Ring makes the perfect gift. You’ll also find matching aquamarine studs in Pandora’s range, which make a lovely set with the ring or gift by themselves. If you’re looking to really treat someone special, this Aquamarine and Diamond Pendant from Hatton Jewels is a stunning choice that anyone would love to receive!
Many Hatton Garden jewellers stock a selection of gemstone jewellery, so finding the perfect aquamarine pendant or earrings should be easy.
