Poseidon. sent a jewel-encrusted chariot pulled by seahorses over the cresting ocean waves with an Aquamarine gemstone in tow every full moon. This became known as… the Aqua Maris – the sea-water gemstone. The ancient Greeks believed it to be the treasure of mermaids. and many kept a piece of Aquamarine with them while traveling in boats so they could summon a mermaid if they were ever in need.These glimmering gems of the sea come in a range of colors. but we specialize in very light blues to intense deep blue tones.
