Morganite belongs to the same gemstone family as emerald, aquamarine, golden beryl and bixbite. Pure beryl is colorless. Natural pink Morganite is a rare find but it is frequently tinted by impurities; possible colors are green, blue, yellow, red, and white. Beryl is routinely treated to improve its delicate color and remove any yellow tones. This beryl gemstone is treated (coated) to bring this lovely pink color making it a fashion favorite. With a hardness of 7.5, morganite is a durable gem perfect for everyday wear. Clean with mild dish soap.
