Recently, Morganite stone has become popular and valuable jewellery in the world. If you are wishing to buy Morganite stone, take a look at the facts you should know about morganite.

What is Morganite?

Morganite is a salmon-coloured variety of the beryl gem family which is also known as rose beryl. Presence of manganese and/or caesium gives a pink hue to morganite which makes it more attractive. Morganite gemstone is different in colour from the other members of the beryl family-like aquamarine and emerald.

Is morganite good for daily wear

If you are wishing to buy morganite, keep in mind that light exposure does not damage the morganite and its colour but heat and chemicals can damage its colour. Due to this reason, if you are wishing to choose a morganite engagement ring for wearing every day, you might need to remove your ring while doing household works where there is a possibility of the presence of harsh chemicals.

Taking Care of Morganite Jewelry

If you want to maintain the value of your stone for years, it requires regular cleaning.

Cleaning Morganite

The main concerns are dust and scratching that harms your gemstone. Clean your stone with an ultra-soft toothbrush which will be small and very soft.

Thereafter, make a mixture of soap with clean water. Using this mixture, gently scrub your stone and the surrounding setting.

When your stone is looking adequately cleaned, use clean water to rinse it and then dry the stone with a soft cloth.

Storing Morganite

In addition to regular cleaning, storing morganite separately in small boxes is also a good idea. It is highly recommended because every gemstone has different levels of hardness. For an illustration, a diamond is a very hard stone and can scratch morganites if you do not store them separately and carefully.
