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.
Agree with the preference for some green in aquamarine.
They are very fascinating in real Life
Right now that's the case.

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 👍
Thanks for sharing!!
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.
Morganite and Emerald are very expensive. Glad Aquamarine is in this family of gems!
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.
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.
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.
Wow! I've learned more about the actual gemstone here than in most videos! Thanks!
So glad to hear!
Thanks for info on Aquamarine.. its March 2021, I'm going to buy a pair of stud earrings with this lovely gemstone and gold.
Im wondering what the price is cuz i want a blue gemstone necklace for Christmas and im wondering the price
Interesting facts. Please keep posting such videos.
Thank you for this..aquamarine is my all time favorite. I own 2 and adore them.
Very educational and interesting. I love knowing more about all kinds of gemstones!
SO glad.
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.
Loved this video! Just bought an aquamarine ring yesterday and it was neat to learn about it. New subscriber!
I was born in March and I’m proud to have it as my birth stone
Great info, thank you! Aquamarine is my favorite gemstone.
Good choice! It has a lot going for it.
Thank you ! I love this stone !
Thank you. this was a great video full of gems 😊
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!
I'm a jeweler and gem cutter that specializes in colored stones. Thanks for the great presentation. This has a broad, easy to understand appeal.
Thanks for sharing!
Ty ur awesome! I have learned so much things about aquamarine!!
Happy to hear that!
Thanks for sharing this video... Very informative...
My pleasure
YEAH. LOVE AQUAMARINE!
Thanaks for the video very intersting!
Always glad to hear that!
Great video on aquamarine.
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.
Love the Beryl family! Thank you! Feel free to talk about Morganite!
Thanks for sharing your ideas about my birthstone. Very distinct and clear explanation... Perfect, excellent, very good... GOD bless you always...
Glad it was helpful!
Very good explanations and informations.
Glad it was helpful!
BERYL: EMERALD, MORGANITE, AQUA AND MUCH, MUCH MORE! YIPPPPEE!
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.
Enjoyd yr informative video...
Great video just found out this is my birth stone, never thought about looking up what my birth stone is until this morning it’s so cool.
I LOVE GEM STONES.
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. 😊🙏
Always happy to hear that kind of feedback! Thanks for watching.
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.
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.
Contact Brian Busse Gemtracker on Facebook he doesn’t treat any of his stones, they all come from mt Antero, in Colorado
I always watch your latest vlogs. I love my aquamarine especially I am a geminian.
Shabbat Shalom Grandrising Thank you
Thanks for the info! I was born in March and found this to be quite educational.
Glad it was helpful!
It was helpful for me too
Good to know re: presence of green as being possible not heat treated. Thanks.
Very interesting
I think so too!
Wow 🤩
So informative.
God bless you bro i wish i could join you and learn under your umbrella.
Glad to hear it has been helpful!
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.

My birthstone 🥳
Love to see your videos
Love from jaipur india
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 😊
Blue is my favorite color so my favorite stones are Aquamarine and Sapphire
I had no idea this was a gemstone 💞💕
Your videos are great. you should have a link to your store.
I'm here after watching Oshi no ko.
And oh yeah Aquamarine and Ruby
That's good😁
I was born in March, and i have an Aquamarine 💎
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. 🙏🧜♀️🧜♂️🛸🌠
Iove aquamari ne
Great video!, when you mentioned created color is that a natural gemstone with an altered color?
Sometimes gem quality aquamarine is heat treated to remove any green colour which enhances the desirable blue colour
Okay we get the color …. Let’s get to it
great lesson. is it good idea to get a cat's eye cobochon aquamarine for gent's ring?
Please make a video on Andra crystals as well some days 🙏
Will you do a video on Topaz? And also, thank you for the super informative content.
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...)
Thanks for sharing. Best of luck.
ruclips.net/user/shorts5Ea_Q9YXZp0 An all-natural, top Aquamarine piece from Skardu.
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?)
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.
You are smart😂
nice
Thanks
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;-)~
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.
Hello, thank you for your videos, they are really educational. Can you recommend an internet seller for good quality opals? Thanks.
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!
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.
my daughter birthstone and she love that color sky blue
I know this is an older video, but YO. I gotta know where you got that shirt! It's so vibrantly blue
I was wondering why you didn't show pictures of the different colors( sources) that Aqua's come in!
wow
So is all beryl considered precious or just emerald
How we can differenciate
Isvit white topaz or crystal or corendum?
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.
Can it be charged in water or sun?
How do I tell if my stone is aquamarine as stated when bought or blue quartz. Jeanne
It's My Birthstone !
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
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.
hence aqua marine gemstone can be found in sea?
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 :)
If you have one do a video for Topaz!
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!
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!
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 RUclips gem school. Love geodes.
Ugh I was hoping to get the benefits
Where do I get a pound of it ?
Blue color emerald
aguamarine is my anniversary stone is good idea a anniversary ring or bad idea?
I love your expression on this video still 😆 you look like you have just heard some salacious gossip about aquamarine!
I used to think this was a super expensive stone all around. Turns out it really doesn’t have to be if it’s not gemmy.
I’ve seen palm stones on Etsy that have a darker greener look to them - didn’t make the connection that this would have to do with lack of artificial treatment. Now I know!!
I had to laugh myself, looking back at this picture with your comment. thanks for sharing!
ive thrifted a beautiful light blue gemstone, how would i known if it is glass or a gemstone just but looking at it? thank you.
The only way to find out is to test in a lab. Here's what a certified, top quality Aquamarine looks like ruclips.net/user/shorts5Ea_Q9YXZp0
Aquamarine is my Sister’s Birthstone
Hi.
Very informative video i have ever seen about Gem stone.
I belong to pakistan .and in pakistan best Quality Aqwanmarine and emerald available.
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]"
Its probably a treated aquamarine. The natural ones don't radiate those colors. Here's a great, top natural piece ruclips.net/user/shorts5Ea_Q9YXZp0
Can a ruff untreated pierce of aquamarine have have Quartz in it
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.
Aquamarine is my birthstone and a gem that I don't own. If you buy one with a good color it's terribly expensive. I do plan to buy one, maybe a pair of earrings.
How deep can Aquamarine be under ground
Which is prettier more glowy sparkly more beautiful ...
Aquamarine, moonstone OR fire Opal
VERY different stones from one another. I don't know you can fairly compare those three in that way...interesting thought though.
