March's birthstone is aquamarine, which has been linked to the making of new friends as well as affection and love, hope and health. This stone was (because of its colour probably) once also thought to protect those at sea.
As the name of this birthstone suggests, it is a green-blue in colour and has a rich, sparkling look when clear and faceted or a soft green blue when in cabochon form. You can get aquamarine birthstones in a variety of shapes and sizes, and you can also get this stone in varying shades of green-blue. To see my silver and aquamarine birthstone jewellery click here.
Alternative birthstones for March are Chalcedony and Amethyst.
