4mm Faceted Diamond Cut Coin Gemstone Bead, Aquamarine
Aquamarine belongs to the beryl gemstone family. Bead-grade aquamarine tends to have many interesting inclusions and numerous opaque areas. The more intense the color of this stone, the higher its value. Aquamarine is a hard gemstone, which makes it an excellent choice for jewelry that will be worn frequently. However, be sure to store aquamarine beads in a dark place, as they often become paler if left out in the sun.
The legendary origin of aquamarine is that it was found in mermaids' treasure chests, making it renowned as a lucky stone for sailors. Its name is derived from the Latin words for "water" and "sea." Consequently, aquamarine is said to protect from perils of the sea, including seasickness. It also is said to heal nerve pain, glandular problems, toothaches and disorders of the neck, jaw and throat. Aquamarine is a popular March birthstone, and is associated with the throat chakra.

Avg Rating: 0 /10
Approximately 4mm diamond-cut faceted coin aquamarine gemstone beads. Coin beads are round, but flat, like coins. These pretty diamond-cut faceted gemstone beads aren't as flat as most coin beads -- they have a puffed middle (but still aren't as spherical as a normal faceted round), and they pack a lot of sparkle into each small bead! 90-105 beads per 15-16" strand. Aquamarine is the traditional birthstone for March.
