Morganite is a pink to pink-orange gemstone that belongs to the beryl family, the same family as emerald and aquamarine. Its delicate pink hue is due to the presence of trace amounts of manganese. Morganite is typically transparent and possesses a beautiful vitreous luster. It was first discovered in California, USA, and was named in honor of the famous financier and mineral collector, J.P. Morgan. With a hardness of 7.5 to 8 on the Mohs scale, morganite is quite durable and suitable for various jewelry applications. It is often associated with love, compassion, and gentleness.
