Spring is slowly starting poke it's head through the door, and as we enter March, the third month of the year, our series on birthstone jewellery turns to the beautiful blue stone - aquamarine.
As we previously explored in our February birthday gift guide, giving birthstone jewellery is a custom dating back to the eighteenth century in Europe.
Each unique birthstone has it's own unique properties that it will share with the wearer.
Typically found in a beautiful blue-green colour, the aquamarine is a member of the beryl family.
Aquamarine properties and meaning
A stone of courage, it is meant to bring the wearer a sense of calm, reduce stress and help quiet a troubled mind. It helps the wearer to be more tolerant, clarify perception and promotes self-expression. It is also thought to help sore throats, swollen glands and be a protection stone in pregnancy.
