Gemstone Description
+
This vivid 1.46 ct purple spinel features a well-proportioned octagon cut that brings out its rich purple-red hue. The tone is medium-dark with a subtle brownish modifier, delivering a luxurious and deep color under various lighting conditions.
Originally from Vietnam, this spinel shows healed fractures and solid inclusions under magnification, along with a small nick on the girdle—minor characteristics that do not detract from its beauty in a mounted setting. The cutting quality is very good, offering strong brilliance and sharp symmetry.
A fine choice for bespoke rings or pendants, this spinel is durable enough for everyday wear thanks to its Mohs hardness of 8 and natural (untreated) origin.
Whether you're creating a custom jewel or adding to a curated collection, this gem radiates elegance and uniqueness.
