The Aquamarine is A Summer Stone
The aquamarine bracelet is one of the favorite pieces of jeweler for designers. This is because the stone is so versatile that it offers a lot of room for creativity. It is hard enough to be set in any metal and it looks great set in silver, gold or platinum. It also has a sparkle that rivals the diamond yet an aquamarine bracelet is a lot less expensive than diamond, ruby or emerald bracelets.
One of the most popular developments in jewelry design is the aquamarine tennis bracelet. Like diamonds, aquamarines can be cut into any shape and they have the same icy appearance as a diamond tennis bracelet does. The only difference is that the aquamarine bracelet may have a bit of a blue flash to them. However you can find aquamarines that are so pale they practically look like diamonds. The bonus to owning a bracelet like this is that if you lose it you will not lose a big investment.
Another popular style are cuff style bracelets. Usually crafted out of silver this type of aquamarine bracelet features scores of tiny stones that are inlaid right into silver or even paved of tiny aquamarine chips. You can also buy beautiful Indian style bangles that are simply hoops paved with aquamarine chips. These look wonderful with a similar bangle that is made out of pink sapphires or yellow canary diamonds.
As aquamarines also suit jeweler designs that are retro in look, it is quite common to find aquamarine bracelets that are rendered in Art deco or Edwardian styles. These beautiful linked bracelets usually feature floral or natural designs along with other precious gemstones such as coral, garnets, sapphires and pearls.
The crystalline blue color of the aquamarine jewelry is also suitable for every complexion and hair color. Fair-haired blondes with blue eyes look like angelic beings in aquamarine earrings. Red heads find their green eyes are nicely accented by the slight green twinkle of the gem. Women with dark hair and dark eyes find the aquamarine gives them a very clean, crisp and professional look. It is the kind of classy bling that Catherine Zeta Jones would wear to a meeting with big Hollywood producers.
Aquamarine earrings also go well with just about every outfit. They look just as great complimenting a little black cocktail dress as they do worn with casual jogging clothes. They also compliment just about every color of clothing with the exception of some mustard colors.
As they are one of the more inexpensive gem stones, aquamarine is also a favorite stone of designers. It is particularly easy to cut and facet this stone so aquamarine jewelry has a sparkle that is more immediately obvious to the human eye. When shopping for aquamarine earrings you are likely to find all kinds of fantastic designs including glittering studs, shining teardrops, paved hoops and silver or gold hoops dangling one precious gem.
