Alongside emerald and aquamarine, morganite is
certainly the best known gemstone from the
colourful group of the beryls. Women the world
over love morganite for its fine pink tones which
radiate charm, esprit and tenderness.
Although this gemstone came into being millions of
years ago, it has only been known by the name of
morganite for less than a hundred years. To be
precise, in fact, since 1911, since before that
the gemmological world simply viewed the 'pink
beryl' as a variety of beryl, not as a gemstone in
its own right. |

But it is
not only people that change their name. Gemstones
sometimes do it too. And so it was that in 1911, on the
suggestion of the New York gemmologist G. F. Kunz, the
pink variety of beryl was ennobled to the status of a
gemstone in its own right. In honour of the banker and
mineral collector John Pierpont Morgan, it was given the
name under which it is known today: morganite.
When
determining the quality of a morganite, the colour is
the most important criterion. Note that this gemstone
should be selected in as large a size as possible, for
it is only above a certain size that the beauty of its
colour really comes into its own. The rule which says
'the more transparent, the more valuable' only applies
to a certain extent, for there are plenty of women who
would prefer a morganite with fine inclusions like pure
silk. What is certain is that the cut really is a
decisive factor, for only a high-quality cut will allow
the subtle colour of the morganite to shine out. |
