A little knowledge, a better choice

What makes
a piece yours?

You do not have to know every gemstone term to make a thoughtful choice. Start with these four questions.

Read David’s buying guide ↗

01

Compare the blue.

Look at the shade in different lighting, from soft and pale to more saturated blue.

02

Consider the dimensions.

A broad cut can have a beautiful presence. Compare the measurements and setting, not weight alone.

03

Ask about treatment.

Aquamarine is commonly heated to adjust its color. Ask what is known for the exact item.

04

Find a comfortable setting.

Check the ring’s profile or a necklace’s length. Let the proportions suit how you want to wear it.

How to make it yours

A little character. Entirely you.

Ideas to wear, pair and enjoy your next discovery.

Good to know

A few good questions.

Which month is associated with aquamarine?

Aquamarine is the birthstone for March. You can also choose it simply because you love it. Read more on David’s ↗

What should I ask before choosing a piece?

Heating is common in aquamarine to reduce greenish tones. Ask about known treatment and identification, and whether documentation exists. Evaluate the entire design, condition and color rather than assuming that a treatment label establishes quality. Read more on David’s ↗

How should I care for it?

Mild soapy water and a soft brush are generally appropriate if the setting and companion stones permit it. Avoid high heat and hard blows. Ask before steam or ultrasonic cleaning, particularly with fractures, liquid inclusions or unknown treatment. Read more on David’s ↗

Can I use layaway?

David’s offers layaway with a 20% non-refundable deposit, no interest, and up to 12 months to pay. Read the full policy for payment, clearance and inactivity conditions. Read the layaway policy ↗
