The birthstone for March is the lovely pale blue aquamarine. It is the pale blue or green version of beryl, and the color ranges from almost clear to mossy light green to sky blue. As with most gemstones, it comes in a range of prices and quality, and can be used in beaded jewelry or set into bezels. Writing about aqua reminds me that I have some beautiful aquamarine beads in my stash that I really should make into jewelry…

If you love seafoam green and sky blue, or are looking for jewelry that blends in with some of the pastel colors that typically show up in fashion around the beginning of spring, aquamarine is a perfect stone to consider.

It is lovely paired with silver, as shown in these beautiful pieces of handmade jewelry:
