Notes: From the rough that you see in the picture I have cut this beautiful Morganite from Brazil. The color is very soft pink, the gem is completely clean and has a very good shine. The cut is called “Squillant” and it is a design that mixes the emerald cut in its upper part and the brilliant cut in the pavilion.
Gemological certificate included: with a photo of the rough crystal and the cutting diagram.
Morganite
Morganite is the pink to orange-pink variety of beryl, a mineral that includes emerald and aquamarine. Morganite’s subtle color is caused by traces of manganese. Because morganite has distinct pleochroism—pale pink and a deeper bluish pink—it’s necessary to orient the rough carefully for fashioning. Strong color in morganite is rare, and gems usually have to be large to achieve the finest color.
Most of the morganite on the market comes from pegmatite mines in Minas Gerais, Brazil. Afghanistan, Mozambique, Namibia,. Untreated morganite often has a strong orange color component, creating a salmon color, miners discovered the first morganite specimens in Madagascar in 1911, this original Madagascar deposit still sets the standard for the best material Magenta-colored rough from those deposits still sets the color standard for the variety.
Care
Morganite can be cleaned safely with warm water, mild soap, and a soft brush. Avoid harsh chemicals and ultrasonic cleaners if the gem has inclusions or internal features—when in doubt, consult a qualified gemologist before using mechanical cleaning methods.
