Where ‘Peach Fuzz’ meets Fine Jewellery.
PANTONE has announced 2024 colour of the year as Peach Fuzz, encouraging us to ‘embrace the warmth’ and nurture ourselves and others. Here, we look at a peach fuzz inspired gemstone edit for 2024.
PEACH FUZZ AND MORGANITE
Velvety peach and pink tones can be found within morganite gemstones. We suggest pairing this special gemstone with the PANTONE of the year for a marriage of warm sparkle. Morganite comes from the Beryl gemstone family, with its range of pinky orange colours being caused by the presence of manganese. First mined in Madagascar in 1910 as rose beryl, morganite was named to honour American financier and gem enthusiast, J.P. Morgan.
HOW TO WEAR PEACH FUZZ IN JEWELLERY
Morganite is a suitable gemstone to be incorporated into your everyday jewellery wardrobe. Ranking between 7.5 and 8 on the Mohs scale of hardness, morganite gemstones are relatively resistant to scratching and hard knocks when treated with care and properly maintained. When incorporating morganite jewellery into your ensemble, consider wearing warm tones to elevate your pieces and draw out the colours of the stones. Golds, pinks and oranges pair perfectly with this special gemstone - or stack your morganite with rose gold or yellow gold jewellery to create a beautiful dimensional look.
SYMBOLISM
According to PANTONE, Peach Fuzz is a heartfelt peach hue embodying a sense of kindness and tenderness, whilst communicating a desire of caring and togetherness. The symbolism of morganite is a perfect match, with its soft pinkish hues associated with love and romance, innocence, and compassion. A gemstone perfect for those connected to their feelings, morganite beautifully represents the heart and lends itself to be an extra special gemstone gift. Morganite crystals are thought to reflect the light of the heart and love, stimulating the heart chakra.
