Amanda’s Style File: Tranquil Aquamarine
March’s birthstone heralds spring with its cool pastel tone.
March is often perceived as a time of renewal. With the hours of daylight increasing and the promise of spring on the horizon, a sense of calmness and tranquility is sure to follow.
It makes sense that the birthstone for March echoes that energy and brings forth the same feelings of serenity.
This month, we celebrate aquamarine as the true treasure of a gemstone it is. With an average price to carat weight ratio that gives designers a good bang for their buck, today’s aquamarine jewelry is found in both everyday staples and over-the-top, breathtaking showstoppers.
One pair of earrings featured here won my heart so much that I wore them to the GEM Awards in January.
Here are 10 Style File jewels that show why March babies are so lucky to have Aquamarine as their birthstone.
Syna aquamarine “Chakra” pendant in 18-karat yellow gold ($495)
Annie James aquamarine and diamond necklace set in 14-karat white gold ($875)
Rush Jewelry Design aquamarine drop earrings in 18-karat yellow gold ($3,720)
Julie Lamb NY aquamarine “Funhouse” ring with princess-cut rubies and diamonds set in platinum ($9,500)
Selin Kent “Ada” ring featuring an aquamarine set in 14-karat rose gold ($2,150)
Lika Behar 24-karat gold “Pebble” necklace with aquamarine beads ($7,150)
AG Gems 49.52-carat aquamarine pendant surrounded by blue sapphires and diamonds set in 18-karat white gold ($60,000)
