Dazzling. Delightful. Distinctive.

Love blissful blue tones and have a penchant for substantial gemstones?

Meet our Bold Aquamarine Quartz Ring, a striking sterling silver statement ring featuring an impressive 16 x 12 mm natural quartz gemstone treated to achieve its luminous aquamarine-inspired colour.

This is not a delicate little blue ring. It is big, bold and beautifully designed to be noticed.

The generously sized faceted quartz shimmers in soft baby-blue tones, with subtle hints of blue-green appearing as the light changes. Its open, elegant setting allows the gemstone to remain the hero, while the polished sterling silver enhances its cool, refreshing colour.

With a face measuring approximately 19 x 14 mm, this substantial ring brings colour, sparkle and personality to your jewellery collection without the price associated with a natural aquamarine of this impressive size.

Handcrafted in high-quality sterling silver, it is part of our much-loved Bold Collection, featuring statement gemstones in an array of colours with matching earrings and pendants available.

Please note that this ring features aquamarine-coloured natural quartz.

About Aquamarine-Coloured Quartz

This ring features genuine natural quartz that has been treated to create its distinctive aquamarine-inspired blue colour.

The treatment allows us to offer a large, luminous blue gemstone while keeping the ring accessible. Because this is quartz rather than natural aquamarine, it belongs to our colourful Bold Collection and remains separate from our natural Aquamarine Mahtava jewellery.

The colour may appear baby blue, pale aqua or subtly blue-green depending on the light, surroundings and screen on which it is viewed.

As with all treated coloured gemstones, prolonged exposure to strong sunlight or intense artificial light should be avoided to help preserve the colour.

Is This Ring Natural Aquamarine?

No. This ring is set with natural quartz that has been treated to achieve an aquamarine-inspired colour.

Natural aquamarine is a different gemstone and is featured separately in our Aquamarine Mahtava collection.

We describe this ring as an Aquamarine Quartz Ring because it combines a genuine quartz gemstone with the beautiful pale-blue colour traditionally associated with aquamarine.

Bold Collection

Our Bold Collection was designed for women who love generously sized gemstones, brilliant colour and jewellery with presence.

The collection includes rings, earrings and pendants in a variety of gemstone colours and styles, allowing you to wear one statement piece or create a beautifully coordinated set.
