Used since Antiquity, aquamarine was nicknamed the "Sailor's Stone" and the "Stone of Courage": it was known to protect sailors from drowning and ensure their safety during a voyage.

Aquamarine comes from the Latin “aqua marina,” meaning seawater. It gets its name from its beautiful blue-green reflections that evoke the color of the sea and oceans.

Symbolically, aquamarine represents the mouth used to communicate and breathe life into the soul. It also embodies water, the source of life.
