1.75CT High Quality Natural Aquamarine from Africa
Weight:(1.75)CT
Stone:(Aquamarine)
Origin:(Africa)
African Aquamarine refers to aquamarine gemstones that are sourced from countries in Africa, primarily from Zambia, Nigeria, and Mozambique. These regions have become increasingly significant sources for high-quality aquamarine in recent years.
Aquamarine is a variety of the mineral beryl, known for its beautiful blue to blue-green color, which is often associated with the color of the sea ("aqua" meaning water and "marine" meaning sea in Latin). The African aquamarines typically have a strong, vibrant color, ranging from light pastel blues to deeper, more saturated blues, depending on the region and the specific deposit.
Key Features of African Aquamarine:
Color: African aquamarines tend to have a pure, bright blue color with a slight greenish tint in some specimens. The Zambian aquamarines, in particular, are known for their more intense, rich blue hues.
Clarity: Aquamarine is generally a very clean gemstone, and African aquamarines are known for their good clarity, with fewer inclusions compared to stones from some other regions.
Size and Cut: African aquamarines are often large in size, which makes them popular for larger, statement pieces of jewelry. Their size and transparency allow them to be cut into a wide variety of shapes, including ovals, cushions, and emerald cuts.
Durability: Aquamarine has a hardness of 7.5 to 8 on the Mohs scale, making it suitable for everyday wear, though it's still advisable to handle the stone with care.
African aquamarine is prized for its quality and vivid color, and it has become a favorite among gem enthusiasts and jewelers. The stones from Zambia, in particular, have a strong reputation for their depth of color and clarity.

Why are users outbidding themselves?
When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a user is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on that users behalf, incrementally increasing the bid to maintain their position as the highest bidder, up to the specified maximum.
When there is an icon indicating 'Auto Bid,' it means our system is actively placing bids for the user based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if users are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the users maximum limit.
