Passionate Color with a Fiery Glow

Red spinels captivate with their intense hues—ranging from deep crimson to vivid ruby-like tones. Historically mistaken for rubies, these gems now shine with their own distinct identity, offering unmatched brilliance and personality for bold jewelry.

Natural, Unheated & Ethically Sourced

Each red spinel in our collection is 100% natural—never synthetic or diffusion-treated. Many are unheated and responsibly sourced from legendary mining regions such as Burma (Mogok), Vietnam, and Tanzania. Hand-selected by a gemologist for color, clarity, and fire.

A Regal History and Modern Appeal

Long cherished by royalty and collectors alike, red spinels once adorned crown jewels around the world. Today, they remain a top choice for engagement rings, signature pieces, and meaningful gifts—especially for those seeking authenticity and color without compromise.

August Birthstone with Timeless Symbolism
