This impressive morganite specimen with albite and lepidolite, sourced from the renowned Painéis area in Virgem da Lapa, Minas Gerais, is an extraordinary example that brings together rarity, beauty, and mineral diversity. Measuring 9.5 × 7.5 × 5 cm and weighing 268 grams, it is a robust, visually striking, and highly collectible piece.
The morganite, the pink variety of beryl, displays a soft, luminous hue with a vitreous luster and excellent presence. It contrasts harmoniously with the albite, which provides a light and delicate matrix, enhancing the brilliance and subtle tones of the beryl. The presence of lepidolite, with its characteristic lamellar texture and lilac-to-rose coloration, adds a unique charm and elevates the mineral association to an exceptional level.
This natural combination creates a well-balanced composition that brings together pastel colors, gentle luster, and well-defined crystalline forms—a true masterpiece of Jequitinhonha Valley mineralogy.

Discerning collectors of rare mineral specimens
