How do you feel about Morganite ??

It looks beautiful to me but I think it might look "washed out" next to my skin. What do you think about this stone ?

I have very fair skin, and absolutely love Morganite. I have one ring in 14K gold, about 4 carats with diamond accents. People mistake it for a pink diamond, and I think of all the gemstone rings I have it is the one that gets the most notice and compliments. Great depth and sparkle to this, not washed out at all.

I would go to a jewerly store and try one to see if you like it.

I too, think that it is a beautiful stone.

I like it. some are better quality than others. Cut matters on this stone as well.

Morganite is a great stone for me - especially when it's set in rose gold. Throw in some good diamonds and I'm really happy.

My skin is pretty much a true ""autumn"" according to the Color Me Beautiful people of the 1980's.

Love the stone by itself, but it does absolutely nothing for me. I am very fair and morganite( same with kunzite) make me look washed out. I bought and returned several times. But is very beautiful!

If you are considering purchasing a morganite ring, I would like to suggest that you first Google "precision cut morganite gemstone" and look at the Images of the stones available. There are some gorgeous stones available, and the cut really makes a difference in the liveliness of this type of stone.

I love this stone and wish I had one - or 2 or3!!! No, I really don't care how many stones but I'd love a ring so I can stare at it. And I really can't imagine anyone appearing washed out regardless of the size as well. I'd just be HAPPY to have one. However, I will not have mine in rose gold. I want to be able to see my stone/color in a white metal. I'm not thrilled with colored golds except yellow.

Anyway, maybe some day I'll own a great morganite.

Love it. Shop HQ has a large section that doesn't cost a fortune and comes in a variety of sizes. I like it set in the rose tone metals the best.

It's beautiful and I love it but only when it's sufficiently saturated. There are a lot of gemstones that can still be pretty with varying degrees of saturation, but this isn't one of them.

Love morganite! But you will not find good quality morganite on any of the shopping channels - it's VERY expensive. The morganite I've seen and purchased on air has been so washed out, it went back. I know the difference as I have a beautiful ring and a pendant set in 18k rose gold. Some morganite has pink tones and some has peach tones. I agree, go to a reputable jewelry store if you want to see morganite, but be prepared for sticker shock! It was on my bucket list, I need earrings to complete the set.

I almost bought a morganite ring a zillion years ago at Neiman Marcus and it was about $600 even back then. It was big and a beauty!

I love my morganite pieces but it took me a lot of trying before I found them. I may be a snob about it but the small stones do look washed out. I haven't seen a small morganite stone that had enough color saturation for my tastes.

I found a really nice 8 ct stone ring in 14k rose gold at Shop a couple of years ago at a one time only price. I noticed the price has nearly doubled since then so I'm glad I got it when I did.

I found a great pair of 14k morganite earrings on JTV. Shocker as most of their stones are too small for decent color saturation. But these are 14k leverbacks with a little bit of diamonds on the front of the levers and each earring has a 4 ct morganite...a single stone hanging from each lever. I was shocked at the quality when they arrived.

It's so lovely and pink is my favorite color. I like it but it hates me....my skin is very yellow and darker so pink stones are not a good choice. If your skin is right it is stunning.

I really like morganite. I purchased two rings in rose gold from Shop, one a former Top Value 19 carat rectangular cushion cut (The Lynne Ring), and the other, the 10 carat heart shaped ring (at a remarkably low sale price for gold and genuine gemstone). I, too, am so glad I purchased those items when I did. Some of the tiny (1.2 carat) morganite stone rings being sold now in gold cost $600 more than what I paid for my 10 carat stone ring. I like the sparkle from these stones, and their unusual, salmon pink color. Morganite doesn't resemble any other stone.

I am pale with a pink undertone to my skin, so I can wear morganite. I have trouble wearing kunzite, however. Perhaps I have not yet found a saturated enough stone yet?
