2.72 Ct. Morganite from Brazil

This 2.72 carat pear shape pink morganite presents a refined balance of size and elegance, with precise dimensions of 14.08 by 7.50 by 4.97 millimeters. The gem has been fashioned with a mixed brilliant cut that combines the depth and light performance of a pavilion with the scintillation of a brilliant crown, resulting in an elongated teardrop silhouette that reads both classic and contemporary. Originating from Brazil, the stone has been heat treated, a standard and stable enhancement used to refine and even out tone across morganite material. The finish is of a uniformly excellent polish, which together with the cutter’s faceting decisions enhances surface brightness and creates a smooth, lustrous appearance when viewed face up or in profile.

Color and clarity are central to this specimen’s visual appeal. The morganite displays a very light pink hue that is delicate and subtly feminine, suitable for those who prefer an understated, soft pastel rather than a saturated color. Clarity is graded as very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which indicates that the stone is visually clean to typical observation and retains excellent transparency. The mixed brilliant cut works to maximize return of light through the crown while minimizing visible windowing, so the stone presents consistent brightness across the table and along the tapered sides. The excellent polish accentuates facet junctions and ensures crisp reflections, so the gem conveys a refined, high-quality finish when set.

As an engagement option, this pear shape morganite is particularly well suited to rings that emphasize elegance and wearable presence. The 14.08 millimeter length provides noticeable finger coverage without overwhelming the hand, and the tapered tip allows for directional settings that can visually elongate the finger. The stone’s very light color responds attractively to warm metal choices, making rose gold an especially complementary setting, while platinum or white gold will present a more modern, cool contrast. Practical setting considerations include a secure prong or bezel for protecting the pointed tip, and a halo or side stone arrangement for added brilliance and to accentuate perceived size. With a Mohs hardness around 7.5 to 8 typical of beryl species, morganite is suitable for daily wear with reasonable care, though it is softer than sapphire or diamond, so protective settings and routine maintenance will enhance long-term durability. The heat treatment applied to this gem is standard and stable, and it does not require special handling beyond normal precautions for colored gemstones.
