Buyer intelligence
Color is the main driver. Pure blue usually commands more than greener material. Faceted aquamarine is often eye-clean, and larger stones can show stronger color.
Care
Generally durable. Warm soapy water is safe; treatment/fracture condition should be considered before ultrasonic or steam cleaning.
BARADAK uses summarized gemological information and links to technical sources; commercial ranges do not replace a laboratory report or formal appraisal.
