0.40 Ct. Spinel from Tanzania

Picture a moment frozen in rose colored light, a memory made luminous by a single perfect stone, a transparent 0.40 carat emerald cut pink spinel from Tanzania that seems to glow from within. This gem measures 4.83 by 3.89 by 2.40 millimeters, and it carries a clarity grade of very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which gives it natural character without distracting from its mirror like facets. The intense color intensity and excellent polish mean every facet sings, casting delicate pink fire with every movement, and because this spinel has no enhancement you are holding an honest piece of earth grown beauty. From the way it sits in the hand in our photographs to the way sunlight makes it blush with life, this gem is an invitation to celebrate joy, love, and moments that deserve to be remembered forever, and at The Natural Gemstone Company we treasure the stories that begin with a stone like this.

Imagine the ways this emerald cut pink spinel can be transformed, imagine it as the confident centerpiece of a delicate solitaire ring, set tall in four simple prongs so its emerald cut statements shine, or cradled in a sleek bezel for a modern, everyday talisman that stays close to the skin. It would become a romantic halo pendant surrounded by tiny diamonds, or a pair of elegant stud earrings that catch the light with every turn of the head. For a bolder expression consider a three stone design flanked by tapered baguettes, or a cluster setting that reads like a garden of pink blossoms. Jewelry designers will love its proportions for east west settings, channel set accents, or as a sparkling focal point in a vintage style engraved mount. Its robust hardness of 8 on the Mohs scale and excellent polish make it a wonderful choice for rings and bracelets that are worn often, while its modest 0.40 carat weight allows for layered looks, stacking rings, and mix and match collections. If you seek a bespoke heirloom, let The Natural Gemstone Company help you envision the perfect setting, we can recommend metal choices, complementary stones, and setting styles to turn this Tanzanian pink spinel into a piece that will be worn with delight for years to come.
