What is Aquamarine? Aquamarine is March’s birthstone per Modern list. It also is considered the 19th anniversary gem. In 1609 a German gem cutter, Anselm Boetius de Boodt associated the greenish blue color of this stone with ocean water (aqua marine) and his description became universal. This gem shows off best in the evening to show off its gleaming quality. This greenish blue colored stone is best untreated. Heated stones will turn pure blue. Light blue is less expensive than the darker blue and greenish blue – which are becoming rare.
What is Bloodstone? Bloodstone belongs to the Chalcedony family which is a historical form of quartz. It is a very dark green Chalcedony with deep red spots. Lore has it the spots represent Christ’s blood. Bloodstone is the Traditional March birthstone.
