Imagine a blush dawn captured in crystal, a singular oval heart weighing 31.05 carats that holds the gentlest promise of pink, a soft light that seems to breathe as it catches the sun. This transparent morganite measures 22.51 x 17.94 x 12.48 mm, faceted into a mixed brilliant cut that scatters light like petals falling in slow motion, each facet a mirror to a memory. The tone is delicate, light in intensity, an honest and understated pink that invites a closer look. Clarity is very very slightly included at eye level, a whisper of natural character that does nothing to dim its glow, and the polish is excellent, so the surface gleams with a satin, near liquid finish. Heat treated to refine its hue, and originating from the storied mines of Brazil, this gem carries the quiet romance of distant earth and sun. From The Natural Gemstone Company this morganite arrives as a statement of refined affection, a stone meant to be held near the heart, set into a piece that will speak softly but persistently of tenderness.
When you consider the practical poetry of wearing this gem, know that morganite sits at 7.5 to 8 on the Mohs scale, a solid and respectable hardness that balances beauty with everyday resilience. For comparison, diamond is a ten, the hardest known gem, and sapphire and ruby register at nine, while quartz is around seven, so morganite outperforms many familiar gems in resistance to scratches, yet it is not impervious to force. Its durability makes it suitable for rings and pendants, especially when set with protective bezels or secure prongs that guard the girdle, and minding the occasional sharp knock will preserve its lustre for generations. Cleaning with warm soapy water and a soft brush restores its bloom safely, and it is wise to avoid harsh chemicals and extreme thermal shock despite its heat enhancement. This gem is a lover of gentle handling, a party of light and history that rewards care with enduring beauty. From the first glance to a lifetime of wear, this Brazilian morganite offered by The Natural Gemstone Company is both an emblem of romance and a gemstone of practical grace.
