Additional Info

Morganite, also known as "pink Emerald", is a light pink variety of Beryl. It was named after J.P. Morgan, the famous financier, banker, and gem collector. In order to improve its color, it's quite common for Morganite to be heat treated.

Where to buy?
For Morganite check what Amazon has to offer. You'll usually find quite a selection from many different vendors. Worth a check. For other high quality gemstones (Rubies, Saphhires, Emeralds) and especially Diamonds, I highly recommend JamesAllen.
