Gemstone Description
This 4.07 ct cushion-cut grey spinel is an exquisite example of understated beauty. In natural daylight, the gem displays distinct bluish reflections, while under incandescent light it shifts toward soft violet tones—an optical behavior that enhances its uniqueness.

This interplay of cool and warm overtones gives the gem a chameleon-like presence—changing subtly with the light and the mood. Its brilliance is enhanced by flashes of steel blue and lilac that ripple across the facets.

Its good brilliance and substantial size make it a striking centerpiece, while the cut is rated as good—well balanced but not perfect. The stone features internal solid inclusions and healed fractures, including one near the girdle and another on the table. These inclusions, however, do not detract from its visual appeal. On the contrary, they enrich its character, making it as interesting under a microscope as it is in jewelry.

Sourced from the legendary gem mines of Mogok, Myanmar—renowned for producing some of the world’s most beautiful spinels.

Photographed at 50x magnification, the inclusions offer a glimpse into the gem’s geological story—a microcosm of nature’s artistry. With a hardness of 8 and no evidence of heat treatment, this grey spinel is both durable and natural.

Grey spinel’s rising popularity—especially in modern engagement rings—has placed it in the spotlight. Often paired with diamonds, it brings a refined depth to bespoke designs.

This is a gem with presence, integrity, and quiet sophistication—perfect for timeless jewelry.
