Faceted aquamarine beads, measuring 30 cm in length and 3 mm in diameter, offer a soft, serene beauty that is perfect for creating delicate and elegant jewelry. Aquamarine, known for its pale blue to light blue-green hues, is reminiscent of the calm, clear waters from which it derives its name. The faceted surfaces of these beads enhance their natural brilliance, creating a subtle shimmer that makes them ideal for refined, understated designs.
Color and Appearance
Aquamarine beads exhibit a range of light blue shades, often with a slightly transparent or translucent quality that gives them an ethereal, glowing appearance. The faceting of each bead adds sparkle and brilliance, reflecting light from multiple angles and enhancing the gemstone’s watery blue color. These beads typically range from pale blue to blue-green, offering a soft, soothing color palette that adds a touch of tranquility to jewelry designs.
Size and Shape
At 3 mm in diameter, these faceted beads are small and delicate, making them perfect for intricate and detailed jewelry pieces. The round shape combined with the faceted cuts provides a balance of classic elegance and modern sparkle. Their size makes them versatile for use in both minimalist designs and as complementary elements in more elaborate pieces.
Ideal for Jewelry Design
Faceted aquamarine beads are a versatile choice for a variety of jewelry designs, offering both beauty and subtle sophistication. They are ideal for:
- Necklaces: These beads can be used to create light and airy necklaces, either as a simple strand or layered with other gemstones for a more dynamic look. Their pale blue hue adds a serene elegance to the design.
- Bracelets: The small size of these beads makes them perfect for dainty bracelets, either strung on their own or mixed with other gemstones for a more colorful piece.
- Earrings: Faceted aquamarine beads are perfect for earrings, especially in drop or dangle designs where their light-reflecting facets can sparkle with movement. Their delicate color enhances a soft, elegant style.
- Rings: These beads can be used in wire-wrapped rings or set into more intricate designs, where their light color adds a refreshing and calming touch.
Pairing with Other Materials
The cool, pale blue tones of aquamarine pair beautifully with a range of metals, including silver, white gold, and platinum, which enhance the gemstone’s calming hue. These beads also work well with other light-colored gemstones such as pearls, moonstone, or clear quartz for a soft, ethereal look. Alternatively, they can be combined with contrasting darker stones like black onyx or deep sapphires for a more striking design.
Durability and Care
Aquamarine has a hardness of 7.5 to 8 on the Mohs scale, making it a durable gemstone for everyday wear. However, care should still be taken to avoid rough handling that could scratch or damage the faceted surfaces. Clean the beads with a soft cloth and mild soap, avoiding harsh chemicals or prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, as this could affect the stone’s color over time.
Metaphysical Properties
Aquamarine is associated with tranquility, courage, and clarity. It is believed to soothe the mind, reduce stress, and promote clear communication. Aquamarine is also linked to the throat chakra, helping to encourage honest expression and emotional balance. Its calming energy makes it a popular choice for spiritual and healing jewelry.
Conclusion
Faceted aquamarine beads, with their delicate blue color and sparkling facets, are a beautiful choice for creating elegant and serene jewelry. Whether used in necklaces, bracelets, earrings, or rings, these small beads bring a touch of sophistication and tranquility to any design. Their versatility and subtle charm make them perfect for both minimalist and more complex, layered jewelry pieces, providing a timeless appeal.
General Instruction
You can prolong the life of your jewelry by properly and regularly caring for it. There are some basic rules that you should follow in order for you to prolong the life of your precious and beautiful pieces of jewelry:
- If possible, rings and other pieces of jewelry should not be worn while carrying out home and garden work, exercising or bathing (salt or chlorine water).
- Jewelry should be removed before going to bed or taking a shower.
- Perfume or hairspray can cause the jewelry to become dull and decrease its shine. We recommend putting perfume, hairspray or other cosmetics on first before putting on your jewelry.
Special Instruction for Pearls
- Pearls should not come into contact with perfume, make-up or hairspray. Alcohol or other solvents can damage the surface of the pearls.
- Pearls should be kept separately from other jewellery, ideally in a cloth bag or wrapped in a soft cloth. That way you can prevent your synthetic pearls from being scratched.
- Pearls are also not suitable for cleaning in the jewellery bath.
Cleaning
Please make sure that stones, pearls and cold enamel are compatible with your cleaning methods.
- Soap, cream and make-up residues can be removed using an ultrasonic device. The ultrasonic device should not be filled with abrasive cleaning agents. It is best to use water with a little bit of neutral cleaning agent.
- Please use a jewelry cleaning cloth to polish slightly tarnished areas and remove dullness, bringing the jewelry back to its original shine. If the discoloration and dullness can't be removed with the jewelry cleaning cloth, we recommend using a jewelry bath solution.
- Please carefully follow the instructions of the cleaning product you purchased for use. Best results are achieved when the item is first dipped, dried thoroughly and finally rubbed and polished with the jewelry cleaning cloth.
- Oxidised pieces of jewelry should not be cleaned in the jewelry bath, if you don't want the oxidation (blackened) effect to be reomoved.
- The surface can, however, be polished with a cleaning cloth.
- Jewelry with imitated pearls, freshwater cultured pearls, lapis lazuli, coral, turquoise, mother-of-pearl, jasper, howlite or hematite are also not suitable for cleaning in the jewelry bath.
- Only the silver parts on leather wristbands, rubber straps or straps made of any other sort fabric may be cleaned using a silver cloth. Do not put leather wristbands and fabric straps in silver immersion baths or clean them using an ultrasonic device.
- Other commercial specialist silver or gold jewelry dipping baths may also be used. Please follow the instructions for use and, if in doubt, make sure that stones, pearls and cold enamel are compatible.
