5.00 ct Blue Aquamarine - Oval

At 5 carats, this aquamarine from Ethiopia carries its blue color through an oval cut, measuring 13.5 x 10.8 x 6.9 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. Ethiopia is one of the newest names on the gem map, now a leading source of bright opal as well as other species. It carries no treatment of any kind, so the color you see is the color that came out of the ground.

No two of these line up the same way on color, cut, and origin at once, which is what makes choosing this one feel deliberate. Hand-selected and filmed by Caveman Gems in good light, shown as honestly as a screen allows.
