The hardness (7-8 Mohs’ scale) exhibited by the aquamarine helps to protect it from the daily rigors it can receive when worn. Aquamarine receives its beautiful blue color from the iron present during its formation. The translucent color of aquamarine makes it easy to see inclusions. Because of this, aquamarine should always be of the greatest possible transparency. The more intense the color of this stone, the more valuable it is.
