0.82 ct Blue Aquamarine - Oval

At 0.82 carats, this aquamarine from Brazil carries its blue color through an oval cut, measuring 5.7 x 3.9 x 3.1 mm.

Aquamarine is the blue beryl, colored by iron, and grows in larger clean crystals than its cousin emerald, which is why it cuts so bright. Brazil has been one of the most prolific colored-gemstone sources in the world for a century, and still turns up new material on a regular basis. Its color was brought up by heat, a legitimate and accepted practice that the trade discloses and we disclose here.

A genuine aquamarine at a size and price you can actually wear, the real thing rather than a machine-grown copy. Hand-selected and filmed by Caveman Gems in good light, shown as honestly as a screen allows.
