Discovered in Madagascar in 1911, this gem was called Pink Beryl until it was renamed by Tiffany’s famous gemologist, George Frederick Kunz, in honor of his benefactor, the New York banker and philanthropist, John Pierpont Morgan. Morganite is a member of the Beryl mineral family (from the ancient Greek ‘beryllos’, meaning blue-green stone), commonly known as the ‘mother of gemstones’ because of its highly regarded gem varieties.
Pure Beryl is colorless and trace amounts of elements are responsible for producing Beryl’s wonderful colors. Morganite’s attractive pink/peach hues are caused by trace amounts of manganese. Apart from Morganite, other Beryl gemstones include, Aquamarine, Bixbite, Emerald, Golden Beryl, Goshenite, and Heliodor.
