About the Item

Faceted Purplish Pink Spinel Weight : 2.25 Carat Dimension: 9.6 x 6.1 x 4 Mm Treatment: Non Shape : Emerald Colour: Purple Spinel is a captivating gemstone prized for its brilliant colors and exceptional clarity. Found in a spectrum of hues, including red, pink, blue, violet, and orange, spinel has often been mistaken for other gemstones like ruby and sapphire throughout history. One of the most famous examples is the "Black Prince's Ruby," a large red spinel that adorns the British Imperial State Crown, once believed to be a ruby. The allure of spinel lies not just in its beauty but also in its durability. With a hardness of 8 on the Mohs scale, it is suitable for a variety of jewelry applications, from rings to pendants. Spinel's excellent clarity and high refractive index contribute to its remarkable brilliance, making it a favorite among gem enthusiasts and jewelers alike. Spinel forms in a variety of geological settings, often found in metamorphic rocks and alluvial deposits. Major sources of spinel include Myanmar (Burma), Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Tanzania, and Tajikistan. Each location produces spinels with distinct color characteristics, influenced by the specific trace elements present in the local geology. In addition to its natural beauty, spinel has a rich historical and cultural significance. Ancient civilizations, particularly in Southeast Asia, valued spinel for its supposed protective properties and its connection to nobility and power. In contemporary times, spinel remains a symbol of resilience and revitalization, often associated with overcoming challenges and emerging stronger. The gemstone market has seen a growing appreciation for spinel in recent years, partly due to its rarity and the increasing popularity of colored gemstones. As more people discover its unique attributes, spinel continues to rise in prominence, celebrated for its stunning colors, exceptional clarity, and storied past. Whether set in a modern piece or an antique jewel, spinel remains a testament to nature's artistry and the enduring appeal of gemstones.
