Item Description

A gemmy and lustrous, lightly etched, 1.6 cm, pretty pink morganite crystal is jauntily attached to the side of the pegmatite matrix on this excellent specimen from a classic Pala District locale. The morganite is pristine and there are fragments of several other morganites in the matrix. Older material from this noted, but less well-known locale.
