Best sidestones for a peachypink morganite set in rose gold?

[ieatbugs]

I need some ideas. I was thinking maybe a bright pink topaz or lavender spinels. What else haven't I thought of, lovely commmunity members?!?!

Well, I don't know exactly what but I do know I don't like those two options. I think the refraction of the spinels would detract from the morganite, and I think bright pink would clash with rose gold. I think I'd try pale yellow beryl.

IEB,
Please wait until you have the stone in hand before deciding on the side stones. There are so many considerations to even begin to think about this. There are many nuances of colour that will make a particular shade fit one peachy pink over another peachy pink. Just to select the right morganite alone will be difficult enough. I am not trying to put a damper on your excitement, but trying to make things easier for you.

Oh Chrono, I know I can't purchase...but what's to stop me from dreaming or using my imagination?

How about aquamarine?

I do not suggest bright or strong colours as side stones for a morganite. Morganite is typically flesh or skin coloured and will be overpowered by strongly coloured or bright side stones, so instead of standing out as the center stone, it gets lost in the setting.
