Amazing Morganite Mineral


Morganite is the pink, rose, peach, and violet varieties of beryl. Often beryl with yellow or orange tinge may be heat-treated for pink. Look at this amazing pure pink morganite mineral. Its color is very rich pink and very rare to find. Unfortunately it is rarer to find gem-quality morganite in rich pink color without treatment.
This mineral origin is from Golconda Mine, Governador Valadares, Doce Valley, Minas
Gerais, Brazil. The size of mineral is 250x250 mm. It is one of the best minerals of the "Cristalli Exhibit" of Dr. Giazotto Collection.

Look at this breathtaking aquamarine crystal. The "Emperor of India" is the most beautiful aquamarine crystal in the world. The crystal is luminescent and has rich turquoise blue color with 12 inches tall. The aquamarine crystal origin is from Paplam Patti, Tamil Nadu, India.
This splendid crystal is one of Dr. Adalberto Giazotto's extraordinary collection. Now it temporarily exhibits in the "Cristalli exposition" of the historical Natural History Museum of the University of Florence if you want to see in person.
