Aquamarine and 5 Things You Should Know About This March Birthstone-Fun Gemstone Facts(2020)

[@RosatheSilvermuse]

I was surprised to learn that aquamarine comes in such large crystals. Fascinating, and I am one who really likes a bit of green in my aquamarines.

[@AlvaSudden]

Agree with the preference for some green in aquamarine.

[@haseebahmad5586]

They are very fascinating in real Life

[@abdullahhussainrana5809]

I’m a March girl and my mom gave me an aquamarine ring set in yellow gold. Since she is also a March girl, it’s a ring she was given by her own mom. The ring dates back to the 1950’s and I love it’s vintage look. Thank you for this informative video 👍

[@YourAverageJeweler]

Thanks for sharing!!

[@danasimcho310]

Aquamarine is my favorite gemstone & I too, prefer a greenish blue hue often referred to a "Seafoam". As the former owner of a small jewelry company, I searched many years until I could find a beautiful greenish blue untreated stone that was heavily included. The first thing my colleagues said was," why are you wearing that awful stone?" It is a larger stone, & is nevertheless, my favorite.

[@astrangerhere]

Another March baby here..... I've always had a fascination with aquamarine, being my birth stone, and given the fact that I love the sea. This past Christmas my aunt bought me a beautiful ring - an aquamarine set in diamonds. I love it, I wear it all the time.

[@itstheweather5859]

Morganite and Emerald are very expensive. Glad Aquamarine is in this family of gems!

[@skbennett5761]

Wow! I've learned more about the actual gemstone here than in most videos! Thanks!

[@YourAverageJeweler]

So glad to hear!

[@patrickkyteler5585]

Am I the only one who likes the untreated sea-foam colored stones? The problem I have with blue aquamarine is the similarity in color to topaz. I also think the astounding clarity is shown to best advantage when there is a balance between blue and green. BTW, I loved the video.

[@YourAverageJeweler]

Thank you. I also appreciate the natural shades, but they are admittedly hard to find with decent color saturation. In Maine, local Aqua tends to all be natural, at least currently.

[@fans-zr3jt]

Large portion in the market sell topaz as aquamarine because of the clean states. Meanwhile I prefered my aquamarine with abit cloudy abit greenish with inclusion.

[@Tfontaine209]

Thank you for this..aquamarine is my all time favorite. I own 2 and adore them.

[@voice-of-reason318]

Thank you so much. I'm a pisces and I looooove my birthstone. I want to purchase necklace or ring with real aquamarine and now feel better informed. Thanks again. 😊🙏

[@YourAverageJeweler]

Always happy to hear that kind of feedback! Thanks for watching.

[@Alexandra-rb7ju]

I'm a pisces with the amethyst birthstone! I love combining both gems and get quite a lot of compliments when I wear both of the stones together.

Thanks Andrew. The session on Aquamarie was informative and intresting. I like your videos ... they sound easy to understand. I am impressed on 2 of the 5 things. No 1: The crystals are massive! No 2: The imposter ... Blue Topaz.

[@olga_tkachenko_pantalassa]

Such huge crystals of pure beauty come because God loves us all and shares the Harmony of Universe with us))))😂 Thank you for the video 🥰 I adore these crystals ❤ Special thank for the green colour - I have a beautiful ring from my granny, smth like 60 years old, made specially for her in Germany. And the author jeweller told there were aquamarine stones. She wasn't keen on such information and I doubted because of their green colour - just the same you showed in the video!!! You tore my doubts away❤ thank you 😊

[@k13m13]

Great info, thank you! Aquamarine is my favorite gemstone.

[@oneofakind9784]

Thank you ! I love this stone !

[@placepages8071]

Good video, thank you 👍 will be back to view more... Aquamarine is so beautiful. Most interesting is the fact aquamarine had less inclusions generally, the Emeralds being highly included was not a surprise as I've seen plenty of Emeralds that wouldn't really win a beauty contest!

[@metatron1980]

I always watch your latest vlogs. I love my aquamarine especially I am a geminian.

[@CaptainMyCaptain33]

I don’t know about others but I like my beryl included. Not heavily. But just enough to make it say I am a beryl, and I have a garden. I love it. Emerald, Aqua, morganite, Bixbite (tho I sadly don’t see that one often), all so beautiful. Clean stones are fine. I get why people like them and pay big money for them. But I am always going to love taking an emerald and looking for three phase inclusions in emerald and Aqua.

[@dianadeedy1025]

Love the Beryl family! Thank you! Feel free to talk about Morganite!

[@binjeshin5712]

[@lindanorris2455]

BERYL: EMERALD, MORGANITE, AQUA AND MUCH, MUCH MORE! YIPPPPEE!

[@CopenhagenDreaming]

It's such a beautiful gemstone. I've previously commented about my inherited "synthetic diamond" that I suspect to be a cubic zirconia, but I've also once been given a sizeable aquamarine that I kind of suspect of being coloured glass, so when I take the "diamond" to be checked out next week I'll bring the aquamarine as well. As neither has cost me anything I won't be angry if I'm told they're both worthless - and I might get both set as lapel pins anyway since they're pretty and have stories. But learning more about what they're *supposed* to be has been interesting. And who knows? Maybe not all tall tales are untrue? (Though they most likely are...)

[@YourAverageJeweler]

Thanks for sharing. Best of luck.

[@Alexandra-rb7ju]

I've treasure hunted (quite literally) for over a year to find an untreated aquamarine stone which is certified to be at least VVS quality. I much prefer the greenish bluish color over the lighter, more sky blue topazish version. I wish there were more untreated stones so people can decide for themselves in the end which version they prefer.

[@pranks405]

Contact Brian Busse Gemtracker on Facebook he doesn’t treat any of his stones, they all come from mt Antero, in Colorado

[@Hasbunalla]

I'm currently in rural Africa hunting for raw Aquamarine...boy I'm lucky in just my 1st week I've stumbled upon some good germs

[@marijapasic8325]

Ty ur awesome! I have learned so much things about aquamarine!!

[@YourAverageJeweler]

Happy to hear that!

[@quickaspeter]

Hi: can you repair a chip/crack in aquamarine stone or do you have to replace it? If so, how does one go about repair/replacement? Thank you.

[@Zantetsukens]

Why is aquamarine so costly when they come in huge blocks?

[@Hasbunalla]

Came onto this video coz I just started hunting for raw Aquamarine in Rural Africa...needed to learn more...week 1 has been great,just got myself s okome pretty good germs

[@katrenco]

Aquamarine is my birthstone, and I MUCH prefer the untreated stones with the green tint in the blue. I find them much more striking and pretty than the heated blue stones that are in vogue now. The untreated blue/green stones are hard to find, though. To me, the heated, all-blue Aquamarine is not as pretty unless you can afford to spend LOTS of money....LOTS of money. In addition, in my opinion, the heated blue Aquamarine can't hold a candle to the Blue Topaz birth stone of December. Now, THAT is a gorgeous blue, and you don't have to spend a fortune to get an amazing, deep color. I wish it was March's stone, I may never find an Aquamarine that I like.

[@Hasbunalla]

I'd be the best person to contact...im currently hunting raw Aquamarine in Rural Africa

[@greendragon8452]

So interesting to hear that it comes in greenish blue! I would love that. I have a gorgeous ring inherited from my husband’s mom. The stone is either an aquamarine or a blue topaz, but I don’t know which. Even the jeweler I took it to for cleaning etc. said he couldn’t tell without a specialized instrument.

[@Imawakenow555]

How come when I go to Crystal shops they have aquamarine that looks almost whitish blue?

[@angelajakem366]

I was wondering why you didn't show pictures of the different colors( sources) that Aqua's come in!

[@shamimahmadkhan6677]

How we can differenciate Isvit white topaz or crystal or corendum?

[@fcl8463]

I have a question, I have an Aquamarine Ring, it lights pink with strong UV light, is it genuin? I found here in wiki, "Dark-blue maxixe color can be produced in green, pink or yellow beryl by irradiating it with high-energy particles (gamma rays, neutrons or even X-rays).[19]"

[@ImperiousGemWorld]

Its probably a treated aquamarine. The natural ones don't radiate those colors. Here's a great, top natural piece kzbin.info5Ea_Q9YXZp0

[@wingirl9333]

I had no idea this was a gemstone 💞💕

[@jeanneogata8626]

How do I tell if my stone is aquamarine as stated when bought or blue quartz. Jeanne

[@jillferrier8715]

wondering if they can be heat treated after they’re cut and mounted? Have my grandmothers ring and now I understand the difference in color. Hers is definitely not been heat treated.

[@Al7anon266MV]

I hope if you talked about the types and prices and what the different for each type I wish if you do one more so we can have almost full information about it

[@annababukhan1801]

Sailors use to carry Aquamarine with them as they believed it kept them safe. Also Aquanarines are connected to mermaids and also galactic beings and Atlantis. Blessings. 🙏🧜‍♀️🧜‍♂️🛸🌠

[@angelacooper166]

Ugh I was hoping to get the benefits

[@stallion738]

My birthstone 🥳

[@josephshattuck5210]

Can a ruff untreated pierce of aquamarine have have Quartz in it

[@YourAverageJeweler]

If we are talking about inclusions within aquamarine, I believe you can find quartz inclusions occasionally within aquamarine. They are also minerals that could be found near each other and can grow within what we consider to be a specimen. If we are talking about can quartz be part of aquamarine composition then that is a different question. They are two completely different minerals composed of different elements. Quartz could not be part of the chemical composition of aquamarine. I hope that helps.

[@idonthaveaname42]

So is all beryl considered precious or just emerald

[@mehreengems7570]

Can you please tell me what degree celsius i can heat aquamarine? I have some aquamarine and would give it a try to heat it into electric furnace :)

[@musicismymind88]

Nice presentation! Thankyou for sharing this with us. Is their a place you would go to buy untreated natural aquamarine? I really want a "raw" piece and don't have a clue who I could trust. Thanks in any case;-)~

[@YourAverageJeweler]

I would start with a reputable local jeweler that has a selection of colored stones. The best thing to do is ask if they have any or can source some for you. If they have any knowledge on the subject they should ask you more qualifying questions to make sure they understand exactly what you are looking for.

[@Luxationtwin89]

great lesson. is it good idea to get a cat's eye cobochon aquamarine for gent's ring?

[@victorresp]

Hello, thank you for your videos, they are really educational. Can you recommend an internet seller for good quality opals? Thanks.

[@virginiagill5902]

I’ll own my birthstone when I’ve won the lottery and can afford the all natural sea green color. So expensive!! Last one I saw was in a simple pendant and priced $34K.

[@lamrinsteudebaker6829]

Great video!, when you mentioned created color is that a natural gemstone with an altered color?

[@scottfromouterspace]

Sometimes gem quality aquamarine is heat treated to remove any green colour which enhances the desirable blue colour

[@gracealfarreguya7615]

my daughter birthstone and she love that color sky blue

[@robingibson9557]

Your videos are great. you should have a link to your store.

[@andreah6379]

Also, what is Milky Aquamarine??

[@YourAverageJeweler]

Likely a reference to Translucent vs. transparent.

[@TayDay25]

That's good😁

[@2ndPortal]

I see a lot of matte aquamarine slightly transparent sold for relatively cheap. Is it real aquamarine and would it be transparent once polished? Thanks for nice videos!

[@khushallgems]

Wow 🤩

[@jayanthis1294]

You are smart😂

[@Justin-c4u]

I was born in March and I’m proud to have it as my birth stone

[@dcs4219]

ok i will share this to FB, you need more views. i love the ugly seafoam green aqua. I saw one as an adolescent in an estate jeweler, it was an inch and a quarter long and about 5/8 or 3/4 wide. He wanted 700 and I could never afford it. Ugly to most, but glows on me. So dont ever ignore the less popular colors, they may be best for you. I am from Oregon and there is lovely, but ignored yellow sunstone. but that is just me!

[@YourAverageJeweler]

You’re right. The “lesser” colors definitely deserve some attention. Being the more valuable color doesn’t mean it is everyone’s first choice. Thanks for sharing!

Where do I get a pound of it ?

[@mariefauvel9772]

Hello, I am a new subscriber, thank you for the great video. How long does it take for an Aquamarine to form (minimum growth age?)

[@YourAverageJeweler]

Thanks for the sub! Growth age can vary greatly, but when lab grown in a more "natural" method I believe they can grow in a few weeks. It really can vary quite a bit depending on the environment and nutrition.

[@janfrombelgium5410]

I got a aquamarine bracelet, it doesn't look like the "typical" clear captivating "high quality" green-blue aquamarine. There are 3 colors in general in my stones, there are greenish stones, blueish stones and almost white ones. Can this still be real natural aquamarine? Or what else could it be.. I'm not talking about quality, just real and natural would be good enough to know. Thx in advance 🙏

[@Jay_in_Japan]

I know this is an older video, but YO. I gotta know where you got that shirt! It's so vibrantly blue

[@helenalovelock1030]

Which is prettier more glowy sparkly more beautiful ... Aquamarine, moonstone OR fire Opal

[@YourAverageJeweler]

VERY different stones from one another. I don't know you can fairly compare those three in that way...interesting thought though.

[@museaden4941]

Hello i have this aquamarine how i can sell it and whom may need to buy

[@anushiyakalita6903]

Can it be charged in water or sun?

[@tigaspinoypower]

Aquamarine and Blue Aquamarine are the same? The birth month is March? I didnt know theres a treatment for the gemstone?

[@celebrate6583]

I saw people selling devil aquamarine. Is that really a natural variation of aquamarine?

[@mirarifsaleh1565]

nice

[@YourAverageJeweler]

Thanks

[@andreah6379]

How about Moss Aquamarine? The gemstone is still the same but comes in various shades of yellow, mossy green and deeper blues? What is that about? And Milky Aquamarine is often cloudy BUT some are a medium blue, & I am guessing without heat treatment. Why, how are these two variations so different from the Aquamarine you addressed here?? I enjoy your KZbin gem school. Love geodes.
