Fancy Brilliant Emerald Cut Morganite Beryl, Afghanistan, 2.31 cts

This morganite has great brilliance and is from a fairly rare origin as most morganites from Afghanistan are too included for faceting. This one has some flaws in one end that show in direct sunlight, but it’s usually eye clean in most indoor or softer light. The color is a very light pastel pink, rather than the peach pink found in stones from Brazil or Africa. It’s barely pink enough though to call a morganite rather than a goshenite or white beryl.
