Be careful with kunzite. Exposure to light and heat
can cause fading. Keep in a dark place.

I have a Chuck Clemency tennis bracelet, morganite in rose gold.  I was examining it the other day and the stones appear almost clear, not peachy pink.  I think what color there is might be reflecting off the rose gold.  My matching ring seems OK. 


@depglass. I’ve never seen morganite stones fade. Could it be those stones were not authentic?

I remember purchasing a kunzite ring ten years ago from a jeweler. They said to keep it out of sunlight, because it would fade.

So interesting that brides are using morganites as engagement rings.  It isn’t a very sturdy stone and will fade in bright sunlight.
