Face-up Size
All things being equal, Morganite will face-up slightly smaller than Aquamarine for a given
carat weight, because it has higher specific gravity
(2.8 vs. 2.72 - this means it's "slightly heavier" compared to Aquamarine of the same size). Face-up size also depends heavily on the proportions of the cut.
