Gemstone Description
+
This 1.55 carat spinel combines elegance, brilliance, and understated beauty. Cut in a bright oval shape, it displays a soft gray tone with delicate violet hues and lively internal reflections. With only minor inclusions visible under magnification, its clarity and precision-cut facets make it a standout gem in its size range.
Spinel has a long and regal history—often mistaken for ruby in ancient crown jewels like the Black Prince's Ruby, it has now earned its rightful place as an official August birthstone. Today, gray spinels are rising in popularity as center stones for unique engagement rings, especially when paired with white or champagne diamonds.
Whether you're a collector or a designer seeking a refined center stone, this spinel offers an exceptional balance of brilliance, rarity, and price.
