The aquamarines in this suite of jewellery were purchased loose in Brazil in the early 1960s, when the vendor`s family were members of a European diplomatic mission to Brazil, and were subsequently mounted to the current vendor`s designs by Scortecci. The aquamarines in the suite are of a deep colour known as `Martha Rocha`. The original Martha Rocha aquamarine was a 35 kg stone found in 1955, so named after Martha Rocha, the first Miss Brazil. The original crystal was cut into 300,000 carats of gemstones, and one set of these aquamarines were given to Queen Elizabeth II as a gift from the Brazilian Government.
