March Birthstone {Aquamarine}

Friday, March 9th, 2012

Happy Birthday March babies! Your gemstone is Aquamarine.

Like seawater, aquamarine comes in blue and green blue color. The more saturated the color, the higher the value, though almost all aquamarine has a light tone.

The Aquamarine has been regarded as the sailors’ lucky stone, as it would bring them protection on the water. The legend of aquamarine says it originated in the treasure chest of mermaids.

Aquamarine is also a popular stone used in meditation, as it brings peace and serenity.

Custom Design {Butterfly Brooch}

White Gold & Diamond Butterfly Brooch

Our client had inherited two diamonds rings that weren’t her style. Her idea was to create a brooch that would show off her diamonds nicely and she needed some design ideas. The marquise shaped diamonds are the prefect shape to create a butterfly’s body, and it just so happened that she loves butterfly’s when I made the suggestion. Below you can see the computer generated design and the completed brooch.
