Antique Style Blue Spinel Ring 1.63 Ct., Platinum 950

This 1.63 carat cushion shape blue spinel, measuring 6.96 x 5.96 x 4.71 mm, is cut as a mixed brilliant to maximize light reflection and optical performance. The mixed brilliant cut combines a soft cushion silhouette with a brilliant facet architecture that returns light with exceptional intensity. Large, well proportioned crown facets capture and disperse light across the vivid blue body color, while the brilliant pavilion facets create rapid, lively scintillation as the stone moves. The result is a balance of depth and fire that outperforms many traditional step cut colored stones, and that delivers more visible sparkle than many comparable sapphires and spinels on the market. With a clarity grade of very very slightly included evaluated at eye level, and an excellent polish, the stone presents as beautifully transparent, allowing the cut to play with every photon and keep the color vivid and evenly saturated. Originating from Burma, this spinel demonstrates the rare combination of natural, intense color and precise cutting that collectors and connoisseurs seek, making it stand apart from mass produced or heavily treated alternatives.

Set entirely in platinum 950, the ring uses the metal as a neutral, reflective backdrop that enhances the blue spinel s brilliance and emphasizes its vivid saturation. White round shaped natural diamonds serve as accent stones, weighing approximately 0.036 carats, 0.02 carats, and 0.014 carats, with clarity VS and color F G, chosen to complement rather than compete with the center gem. These diamonds, precisely matched and finely set along the shoulders, increase the perceived size and scintillation of the center stone while preserving the clean, elegant profile that distinguishes high quality design. Compared to rings set in lower grade metals or with less carefully cut center stones, this combination of a Burmese mixed brilliant spinel, high quality diamond accents, and a durable platinum 950 setting offers superior visual impact, longevity, and investment value. The Natural Gemstone Company presents this ring as a refined alternative for buyers who want a colored center stone with the brilliance of a fine cut, the pedigree of Burmese origin, and the enduring strength of platinum.
