Morganite Oval Faceted Gemstone

The pale peach-pink color, clarity and durability of this oval faceted morganite make it an ideal complement to a wide variety of jewelry styles. The color of the gemstone pairs well with both white metals and rose gold; set it alone in a simple setting, in pairs or clusters of morganite or in combination with gemstones in complementary colors. Morganite, a member of the beryl family, owes its color to the presence of manganese (or cesium) in the gemstone. The color of the gemstones may range from rose pink to purplish-pink to peach—even to an orange-pink. Morganite gemstones tend to be free of inclusions and very clear. The oval cut is an even, symmetrical shape but elongated. The arrangement of its facets is similar to that of a round brilliant, designed to maximize light and color.
