Hi everyone,
I recently received a beautiful morganite engagement ring from my fiance and it's my first time wearing a gemstone ring on a daily basis. I have read that morganite is a delicate stone compared to diamonds and sapphires, so I wanted to learn more about how to take care of it.
I have already read about some general tips like avoiding harsh chemicals and storing it separately from other jewelry. However, I wanted to know if there are any specific things that I should avoid doing while wearing my morganite ring.
For example, can I wear it while swimming or doing other water activities? Can I wear it while exercising or doing manual labor? Can I wear it while applying lotion or perfume? I want to make sure I don't accidentally damage the stone or cause any discoloration.
Any advice or personal experience would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hello all,
I have been wearing a morganite ring for several years now, and during that time, I have learned a valuable lesson—the importance of getting the ring checked and maintained by a professional jeweler regularly.
Morganite is a semi-precious gemstone, which means it's relatively softer compare to most precious gemstones. As a result, the stone is more susceptible to scratches and crack damages. Even though with proper care, you can avoid most of these issues, it's still imperative to have your ring routinely checked by a professional jeweler.
During these checkups, the jeweler can examine your ring to ensure everything is in order, such as the prongs or any other parts of the ring that are essential to maintain the stone's security. The jeweler can also buff your ring and give it a professional cleaning to restore its natural luster, as some amount of dirt and grime can accumulate over time.
In my experience, getting my morganite ring maintained by a professional jeweler every six to eight months has helped keep it in top-notch condition. It keeps the stone looking renewed and polished and maintains the ring's structural integrity.
So, if you want to keep your morganite ring looking as beautiful as it did on the day you received it, I highly recommend taking it to a professional jeweler for regular checkups.
Hope this helps!
