0.66 Ct. Spinel from Burma (Myanmar)

The journey of our 0.66 carat fancy shape pinkish-red spinel is one that speaks to both the earth's natural wonders and the intricate artistry of gemstone craftsmanship. This mesmerizing gemstone originates from the storied and mineral-rich lands of Burma, known today as Myanmar, a region lauded for producing some of the world's most coveted spinels. Its unique allure begins at the depths of the earth, where over millions of years, geological processes have melded and twisted minerals into a gem of such vivid brilliance. Once carefully extracted from these ancient deposits by skilled miners, the journey of this gem continues as it moves towards the hands of a master gemstone cutter.

At The Natural Gemstone Company, we see every gemstone not just as a precious artifact but as a story waiting to unfold. The transformation of this spinel from a raw, unpolished stone to the exquisite, step-cut jewel that you see today is a testament to human mastery and dedication to perfection. The step cut, a deliberate choice by our artisan cutters, enhances the spinel's natural radiance, showcasing its intense color intensity and captivating character. With dimensions of 8.11 x 5.74 x 3.23 mm, each facet sings with the deep pinkish-red hues that have made Burmese spinels a favorite among gem connoisseurs. Its very slightly included clarity grade ensures that no imperfection detracts from the rich vibrancy that dances across its surface, even when evaluated at eye level. An excellent polish brings the final touch, enabling each facet to gleam with unrivaled brilliance and capturing light in a mesmerizing display.

For the educated buyer, the value of this pinkish-red spinel extends beyond its aesthetic appeal. Among the world of gemstones, spinels possess an unparalleled historical significance, once mistaken for rubies and adorned as crown jewels by royalty throughout history.
