If you ever heard the saying, “pretty in pink” you might think of a woman wearing a colorful blouse or dress in a pink shade. Yet this saying should also apply to jewelry, as women adore the pink gemstone hues of rare morganite gemstones.
What Is Morganite?
Morganite has always been around for millions of years. Yet when gemologists discovered this rare gem, it was termed “pink beryl.” Part of the beryl family, the stone is distinguished by its amazing pink color that ranges from a light peach color to a violet pink. This stone was first discovered in early 1911 in places such as California, Madagascar, Russia, Brazil, Namibia, and Afghanistan.
The value of morganite is determined by its cut and color, although it remains an affordable gemstone due to how relatively rare it is and that there is not enough standard size stones available. The larger the stone, the more color it has as heating this stone improves its pinkish hue. Clarity and cut also play important factors, as a highest quality cut allows the color of the morganite to come to the surface.
