Aquamarine is associated with the month of March due to its color, which evokes water and the transition into spring. This visual connection is the basis for its inclusion among the birthstones.
It belongs to the beryl family and features shades ranging from light azure to a more intense blue. These chromatic differences are natural and variable.
A distinctive characteristic of aquamarine is the frequent presence of crystals that are significantly larger than those of other gems.
