1.71 Ct. Morganite from Brazil

This 1.71 carat transparent peach morganite presents an elegant oval outline with precise dimensions of 9.16 by 5.96 by 4.94 mm, executed in a mixed brilliant cut that optimizes both brilliance and weight retention. The cutting design employs a brilliant facet arrangement on the crown to maximize light return and scintillation, paired with a modified pavilion geometry that minimizes windowing and preserves face up color, creating consistent sparkle across the table and crown facets. Clarity is graded as very slightly included at eye level, indicating minor internal features that do not disrupt transparency or light performance, and the overall polish is excellent, yielding crisp facet junctions and mirror like facet surfaces. Color intensity is light peach, evenly distributed through the body, and the stone is unenhanced, confirming that the observed pastel saturation is natural.

Origin from Brazil further elevates the gem, because Brazilian pegmatite sources are renowned for producing morganites with delicate, stable peach hues and a high degree of crystalline clarity, attributes that collectors and connoisseurs prize for both aesthetic and market reasons. Provenance from Brazil supports a premium for terroir, as it ties the material to established mining districts with documented geological conditions that favor the formation of large, inclusion sparse crystals. At The Natural Gemstone Company we highlight how the combination of unenhanced natural color, refined mixed brilliant faceting, and excellent polish translates into superior setting behavior, whether the gem is mounted in a prong setting to emphasize brilliance, or in a bezel to enhance color saturation. The stone’s proportions and optical performance make it ideal for fine jewelry applications, offering predictable light return and durable facet geometry, and its modest inclusions allow confident lapidary work and secure mounting without compromise to appearance.
