Solid 9 Karat Yellow Gold and Aquamarine 'Solo' Necklace This gorgeous minimalist necklace combines a delightful pastel-blue aquamarine sphere with a solid 9 karat yellow gold chain. The 8mm round sphere of natural aquamarine floats freely on the fine gleaming filed curb chain, adding a subtle yet tactile kinetic element to this fine necklace. A carefree piece to wear year-round. Fun fact: Aquamarine is the perfect gift for a March birthday or a 19th anniversary. Each sphere is hand-selected for colour and quality in our Dublin studio and paired with a quality German-made curb chain in solid 9-karat yellow gold. We make it in a standard length of 40cm (16 inch), but you can order it in a 45cm (18 inch) or 50cm (20 inch) length perfect for layering. Lore: Aquamarine is named for the Latin “aqua” (water) and “marina” (of the sea) in reference to its pale blue colour. It was said to be a mermaid’s treasure and a talisman for seafarers. Lightweight and comfortable to wear this super versatile aquamarine necklace is lovely on its own, but works equally well paired with a second necklace for a curated neck-stack. Feminine and elegant this marvellous aquamarine will easily go from casual daywear to elegant evening wear. It will fit perfectly with any outfit in your wardrobe. Metaphysical properties: Aquamarine gives off a gentle and compassionate energy and is also embraced as a stone of courage and empowerment. It brings a quiet resilience and no matter the battles you face in life, this stone can help you remain strong and calm through it all.
