Understanding This Piece
About Aquamarine
Aquamarine is the pale-to-medium blue variety of beryl — the same mineral family as emerald — colored by trace iron. The finest aquamarines come from Brazil and Madagascar and display a clear, saturated sky-blue without green undertones. Aquamarine scores 7.5–8 on Mohs (durable for daily wear) and is the March birthstone and 19th-anniversary gem. The Latin name means 'water of the sea,' and in nautical tradition the stone was carried by sailors as a talisman of safe passage.
About 14K White Gold
14K white gold mixes 58.3% pure gold with palladium and silver, then receives a rhodium plating that gives it the bright cool-white finish prized for engagement rings and diamond bands. It looks similar to platinum at roughly half the cost. The rhodium plating wears with daily use and typically needs reapplication every 18–24 months — a service we provide free for life on every white gold piece sold at ATL Luxury Jewelers. Underneath the rhodium, 14K white gold has a faint warm undertone.
About Fashion Rings
Fashion rings prioritize design innovation, contemporary trends, or distinctive aesthetic signature over traditional engagement-ring categories. The umbrella covers oversized statement pieces, mixed-media designs, sculptural metalwork, and trend-driven shapes. Every fashion ring at ATL Luxury Jewelers is hand-finished in solid precious metal (not plated alloys) so the design holds up to long-term wear regardless of trend cycle.
