Is morganite suitable for an engagement ring?
Morganite can be used in an engagement ring, but it needs more care than sapphire, ruby or diamond. It is reasonably hard, but it can still be scratched, chipped or worn over time if the design is exposed or the ring is worn heavily. Protective settings and realistic care expectations are important.
What colour is morganite?
Morganite usually ranges from soft pink to peach, salmon or blush tones. Many clients choose it for its warmth and subtlety rather than intense colour.
Is morganite related to aquamarine and emerald?
Yes. Morganite, aquamarine and emerald are all varieties of beryl. Morganite is the pink to peach variety, aquamarine is the blue to blue-green variety, and emerald is the green variety.
How should morganite jewellery be cared for?
Morganite jewellery should be protected from hard knocks, harsh chemicals and unnecessary abrasion. Clean gently with warm soapy water and a soft brush, and have rings checked periodically to ensure the setting remains secure.
