We get a lot of questions about our morganite rings. Below, we've answered a few of the most popular and provided more information about this rose colored favorite.

Morganite is a rare, peachy-pink variety of the beryl mineral family, the same family that includes emerald and aquamarine. Its soft color comes from traces of manganese, and it typically ranges from delicate blush pink to warm peach or salmon.

Discovered in the early 20th century, morganite was named after the financier and gem enthusiast J.P. Morgan, who was known for his contributions to the world of gems and mineralogy.

Morganite has a Mohs hardness rating of 7.5 to 8, making it quite durable for daily wear, especially when set in protective settings like halos or bezels.

Morganite rings are often associated with love, compassion, and emotional healing. The soft pink tones represent gentle love and inner peace, making this gemstone especially popular for engagement rings and anniversary gifts.

Wearing morganite is believed to:

• - Encourage open-hearted communication
  - Deepen emotional connection in relationships
  - Soothe anxiety and promote calm energy
  - Inspire feelings of self-love and healing

It’s a meaningful choice for anyone seeking a ring that reflects tenderness, emotional growth, and lasting love.

Though not a traditional birthstone for any month. Morganite resonates strongly with Libra, the sign ruled by Venus—the planet of love and beauty. Libra’s energy aligns well with Morganite's peaceful, balanced vibe.

It also connects with:

• - Taurus: Another Venus-ruled sign that values beauty and harmony
  - Pisces: Encouraging emotional healing and deeper compassion
  - Cancer: Supporting emotional growth and security

Even if it’s not a traditional birthstone, morganite’s energy has a universal appeal that makes it meaningful for many.

Morganite comes in a variety of shades, mostly within the pink-to-peach color spectrum:

• - Blush Pink Morganite: The most classic and popular, with a soft, romantic tone
  - Peach Morganite: A warm, golden-pink color that glows in natural light
  - Rose Morganite: Slightly deeper pink with rich, rosy undertones
  - Champagne Morganite: Light pink with hints of tan or beige for a vintage feel

The intensity of the color depends on the size of the stone and whether it has been heat-treated (a common, stable enhancement that improves color).

Morganite isn’t just visually beautiful—it’s also prized for its emotional and spiritual benefits. Many crystal healers and gemstone enthusiasts believe it supports the heart chakra, helping you open up emotionally and attract love.

Benefits are belived to include:

• - Encouraging forgiveness and compassion
  - Supporting emotional clarity and healing from past trauma
  - Promoting a calm, balanced mind and heart
  - Strengthening romantic relationships and friendships

It’s often used in meditation and spiritual practices for those working on heart-centered healing.

Morganite was first discovered in 1910 and later named after J.P. Morgan, a well-known gem collector of his time. Before that, it was simply called “pink beryl.” The name change was made official by George F. Kunz from Tiffany & Co.

With its soft, romantic hue and elegant appearance, morganite has become a popular alternative to diamonds—especially for engagement rings. It’s generally more affordable than diamonds, making it a favorite among couples looking for something beautiful yet budget-friendly.

Today, most morganite is sourced from countries like Brazil, Madagascar, Mozambique, and Afghanistan. Its rise in popularity has been especially strong among millennials who want a unique and meaningful ring choice.
