Product description

Spinel, especially of fine quality, has grown significantly in popularity among gemstone enthusiasts and jewelry collectors in recent years. One of the reasons for this rise in popularity is that spinels are now more recognized for their own beauty and rarity, rather than being mistaken for other gems like rubies or sapphires. They come in a wide range of colors, but red and pink spinels, in particular, are highly sought after for their vibrant hues similar to those of rubies.
The gemstone in question is a purplish pink spinel, which is a natural mineral composed of magnesium aluminum oxide. The particular stone detailed here is transparent and carries a substantial weight of 1.19 carats, making it a noteworthy centerpiece for a variety of fine jewelry pieces. Its round shape and dimensions of 6.77 x 6.78 x 3.92 mm indicate a well-proportioned stone, which is essential for maximum brilliance and aesthetic appeal. The mixed brilliant cut of this pink spinel enhances its ability to reflect light, adding to its sparkle and making it highly desirable for luxurious settings.
One of the main features of this purplish pink spinel is its "eye clean" clarity grade, which means that no inclusions or blemishes are visible to the naked eye, ensuring a clear and attractive appearance. Its intense color intensity is also notable, as it indicates a bright and saturated hue that adds to the gem’s allure. With an excellent polish, the surface of the spinel is smooth and reflective, contributing to its overall luster.
The origin of the gemstone is Ceylon (Sri Lanka), which is historically renowned for producing some of the finest spinels in the world. This adds to the provenance and the intrinsic value of the stone, as well as to its secretive allure.
To illustrate an example of how this gem might be used, let's describe a pair of intricately designed earrings:
Imagine a pair of elegant, one-of-a-kind earrings, each featuring the aforementioned purplish pink spinel as the star. The spinels are set in a rich 18k white gold base, which provides a contemporary and lustrous frame for the stones. Surrounding the centrepiece are delicate halos of micro-pavé diamonds, meticulously hand-set to offer dazzling contrast and additional sparkle that brings out the pink hues of the spinels.
The craftsmanship of these earrings involves precise artistry, as each diamond is carefully selected for its cut, color, and clarity to ensure the most harmonious design. The settings of the earrings are secured with prongs specifically sculpted to cradle the spinel safely and elegantly, also allowing maximum exposure to light for enhanced brilliance.
The overall aesthetic appeal of these earrings is one of timeless sophistication and refined taste. They hang gracefully, perhaps with a slight drop or stud design, to draw attention to the movement and purity of the spinel. Suitable for formal events or the most special occasions, these earrings exude luxury and speak to the wearer's appreciation for rare and exquisite jewelry. Their appeal lies in the harmonious blend of materials, the exceptional quality of the central gemstone, and the painstaking attention to detail evident in every facet of their design.
