In 77 CE, Pliny the Elder wrote of a stone that evoked a mermaid’s treasure, while the Greeks believed aquamarine washed ashore from the treasure chests of sirens. The Romans called it the sailor’s stone, sacred to Neptune, and believed it could calm the waters it was named for—aqua marina, water of the sea.
This collection contains seven one-of-a-kind pieces. Each stone has a different cut and depth of colour, holding its own internal world. Inclusions evoke sunlight streaming through the surface of the sea, fractured and scattered beneath the water.
Set simply in 14-karat yellow gold, the stones are worn on leather cord, as pendants or on the wrist: the sea distilled into its rawest form.
