Tiffany & co | an incredible morganite ring
Morganite is a very rare pink variety of beryl, the mineral family that includes emerald and aquamarine. Owing its pink colour to Manganese impurities, Morganite was first brought to the attention Tiffany’s head gemmologist Georg F Kunz during his tenure as vice president of the New York Academy of Sciences. Realising this beautiful and rare stone was a new discovery, he named it morganite after the financier JP Morgan, who was one of their key patrons. Thanks to Kunz’s pioneering approach to gemmology, Tiffany & Co. was an early adopter of these relatively new gemstones, including morganite, tanzanite and kunzite (named after Kunz), so it’s fitting that this exceptionally attractive stone has been mounted by this illustrious American jewellery firm. In gold mount chosen to accentuate the warm, sweet pink of its stone, this is the perfect mid-century cocktail ring.
