FOLKLORIC PROPERTIES ✫
Aquamarine – according to Ancient Greek and Roman myth, this stone fell from a mermaid’s treasure chest to become a sacred stone of the God Neptune. Thus, it was believed that this stone could calm stormy seas and protect seafaring travelers. As such, it was dubbed “the sailor’s gem”.
In addition to calming stormy waters, this stone was believed to soothe tempers and promote tolerance.
