Item Description

A group of sharp, well-formed, lustrous, pink Morganite Beryl from the famous locality at Darra-i-Pech (Pech) in Afghanistan. Typically, Morganite is not found in sharp, euhedral crystals, and is truly only known in fine specimens from a handful of world localities. The crystals on this specimen are in good shape show the classic tablar, hexagonal form for which Morganite is best known. It has a lively pink color, with good luster and well-defined crystal faces. A worthwhile miniature display specimen of this well-known material.
