The subtle tones of these gorgeous morganite stud earrings lend a touch of grace to any ensemble. Faceted 5mm rounds of pastel pink morganite are featured in four-prong settings of radiant and durable 14 karat gold. The setting holds the stones securely, yet with minimal metal interference, allowing their delicate color to really shine. Morganite, named after the passionate gem collector J.P. Morgan, is a beautiful peach, pink, or lavender variety of the mineral beryl, and a close cousin of the vibrant green emerald and the watery blue aquamarine. With pinks as gentle and subdued as aquamarine's blues, morganite projects both femininity and sophistication. These earrings are featured on posts with traditional friction backs and are available in your choice of white or yellow gold.
