AQUA LUCIDA
Light held in water.
Natural, untreated AAA aquamarine of exceptional translucency, in pale, icy shades of blue.
Each finely faceted rondelle, approximately 4 mm, has its own distinct character. Some stones are almost colourless, others hold a clearer trace of blue. Light passes through them, revealing delicate facets, fine natural inclusions and the gentle shift from one bead to the next.
Colour here is a whisper. The beauty lies in clarity, light and the faintest suggestion of blue.
Worn close to the collarbones, AQUA LUCIDA forms a fine, luminous line. In direct sunlight, the pale blue tones and tiny facets become more apparent; in softer light, the stones turn almost crystalline.

Photography note
Natural gemstones reveal different nuances in sunlight and shade. Their colours may appear darker, softer or more translucent depending on the light.
Camera settings and screen displays may also affect how colours appear. Close-up and macro photography can make the stones appear larger than their actual size.
