An aquamarine specimen refers to a naturally occurring piece of the mineral beryl that exhibits the characteristic pale blue to blue-green hues of aquamarine. These specimens are typically found in large crystals and can vary in size, shape, and clarity. The color of aquamarine can range from light sky blue to deeper shades with a slight greenish tint, depending on the concentration of iron in the crystal structure.

Aquamarine specimens are typically found in pegmatites, which are igneous rocks that form slowly and contain large crystals. They can also be discovered in alluvial deposits, where the crystals have been eroded from their original source and carried by water to other locations.
