A little history

In ancient times, Roman sailors wore aquamarine amulets to protect themselves from storms. It was believed to have come from the treasure chests of mermaids, ensuring a safe crossing. It is also said that the emperor Nero used polished Aquamarine as the first version of spectacles to improve his view of gladiatorial spectacles. This stone, associated with clear vision and protection, has survived the ages, remaining linked to water and travel.
