Look, Wen Hao, we are the window of jewels and jade!
If you want to talk about a gem that is favored by the European royal family, aquamarine should be on the list. If we pay a little attention, we will find that the royal nobles in many countries have aquamarine jewelry, and those princesses can be seen wearing aquamarine on many important occasions, and many of these beautiful aquamarine necklaces and crowns are the favorite of many girls.
Aquamarine-beryl, whose English name comes from the Latin "aqua-marina", means "water in the sea". According to the data, the first-class aquamarine is distributed in the alluvial layer of Brazilian pegmatite and gravel, which is called "cascalho" locally.
The aquamarine we usually see in the market is relatively ordinary, so many friends will mistakenly think that aquamarine is so ordinary. In fact, the face value and value of a good aquamarine are very high. Deeply loved by nobles, it is often chosen to make jewelry equipment symbolizing status and power.
When it comes to European royal aquamarine, we have to mention Elizabeth's aquamarine suit. According to the description of relevant information, this set of aquamarine is a pure natural unheated aquamarine from Santa Maria, Brazil. 1953, Brazilian President Getulio Vargas presented a set of aquamarine necklaces and earrings as a coronation gift to Queen Elizabeth II.
1957, the queen asked the royal jeweler to create a set of matching crowns, which were simple in style and had only three aquamarine treasures. Later, when the Queen visited Brazil in 1968, the President of Brazil gave her some aquamarine jewelry, and Elizabeth II transformed it into what we see now. Therefore, the name of this crown is quite simple and rude, and it is called the crown of Brazilian aquamarine.
In addition to Elizabeth's aquamarine, this aquamarine crown also impressed many friends. Because this crown is very similar to the crown of Vladimir, the grand duke of Queen Elizabeth of England, many friends will mistake the two crowns carelessly.
This crown was originally made by Ansorena, a Spanish jeweler, as a gift from King Alfonso XIII of Spain to Queen Victoria, the granddaughter of Queen Victoria of England. At first, the crown was a pearl pendant. Later, the queen replaced it with Brazilian aquamarine. Later, Queen Victoria gave the crown to her daughter King Beatrice. The crown was transformed into what it is today in Beatrice's hands.
This crown is the same as that of the Queen of England. The center can be empty, without pendants, or it can be inlaid with different gems according to your mood. However, this beautiful aquamarine crown is generally matched with aquamarine, unlike Queen Elizabeth who will change pearls or emeralds according to her mood and dress. I wonder if my friends think it looks good with aquamarine or pearls or emeralds. It is said that this aquamarine crown is no longer the main branch of the Spanish royal family, but has flowed into the sideline, and beautiful jewelry is also worn in turn.
However, not all the royal aquamarine crowns are luxurious, and some are relatively small and fresh. For example, Sophia, Countess of Wessex, the British royal family, has an elegant aquamarine crown. There is only one aquamarine in the whole crown, but even an aquamarine is quite transparent and beautiful in color, which makes the countess look very fresh and energetic.
It is said that this crown was purchased in 2005 and is privately owned by Sophie. However, I think the necklace around my wife's neck is also very fresh and attractive. Girls who like aquamarine may be able to make the sweater chain look like it is now, with a dark coat. Want to walk in the street is also a fresh and attractive bright spot.
After careful consideration, I decided to share this picture with my friends at the end. Although her crown is small, the chocker made of aquamarine and pearls is really amazing, just like sparkling seawater worn around her neck, which makes people's eyes involuntarily attracted.
I have to say that these royal beauties not only like aquamarine, but also make the beauty of aquamarine varied. I don't know which style aquamarine friends like best, luxury or simplicity and freshness? Welcome to discuss and share.
