Product Description
Stone: Morganite Cut: Oval Dimensions: 11mm long x 9mm wide x 6mm high Approximate Carat Weight: 3.20 ct Country of Origin: Brazil From the Gemstone Gallery Collection About Morganite: Morganite is the soft pink, sometimes peach or lavender colored, rare variety of beryl. It has excellent fire and is dichroic, meaning it shows pink hues when viewed from one angle and near colorless properties from another. First discovered in Madagascar in 1911, morganite was named after the American banker and gem enthusiast, John Pierpont Morgan. Legend says that he went down with the Titanic, but Morgan actually missed the doomed maiden voyage and died the following year in Rome, just shy of his 76th birthday. Morganites hardness ranks 7.5-8.0 on the Mohs Scale. With its dazzling luster, exquisite color and sufficient hardness, the beautiful stone is especially suitable for jewelry.
