Nigerian Aquamarine - $10 to $50/carat
Locality: Nigeria, Africa

I cut a lot of this material myself when I can get it. This material is about as good as there is in color and quality coming out of Nigeria.

The colors range from nice blue, blue/green to yellow green. Saturation varies a little but it is all light to medium and medium/dark in color, to Top natural Aquamarine. Because this material is unheated, the colors tend to be what I would call a true Aquamarine color. The colors also tend to be softer, not as harsh as heated Aquamarines tend to be.
