Aquamarine is probably one of the most popular gemstones, and if you were born in March it's even more special to you, because it's your birthstone. Colors range from pale to vivid blue, and some aquamarines have shades of green thrown in. Top quality aquamarines are very clear (unlike most of their close family members, emeralds, which tend to have more inclusions). But even cloudy aquamarines have a charm all their own (like you'll see in the ocean-inspired necklaces in this collection).
Aquamarine & Chocolate Diamond Earrings in 14K Gold

Each of these stunning earrings has an emerald cut aquamarine at its center, surrounded by 32 brown chocolate diamonds -- all gems are prong set. The earrings are about 7/16" long and 3/8" wide, so they're more delicate than the illustration makes them appear. Butterfly backs hold the earrings in place.

The twist in this polished white gold setting makes the ring appear almost fluid, and provides a nice backdrop for the 7x5mm solitaire aquamarine. The gem is held in place with prongs.

Each of these rhodium plated silver earrings is set with an oval aquamarine. The stud earrings are held in place with post backs. (The rhodium helps keep the silver from tarnishing.) A pretty look for March birthdays.
Aquamarine Necklace - 'Ocean Majesty'

Six strands of aquamarine beads drape around each side of the neck, separated in front with (reconstituted) turquoise chips and an ornate silver bead. The necklace isn't made from clear aquamarine -- the beads are more opaque and their colors vary for more of a natural, organic look.

This 14K white gold pendant features a pear-cut aquamarine at the end of a column of diamonds. A graceful "S" curve flows under the aquamarine and over the top of the diamonds. The pendant hangs from a 16-inch chain.

Here's another necklace made by the same craftsman with aquamarine beads much like those in the 'Ocean Majesty" necklace, but three strands this time. Each strand aquamarine is separated at the front of the neck with ornate silver beads.
