0.68 Ct. Spinel from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

From the lush landscapes of Ceylon, where the azure skies echo the serene hues of its hidden treasures, comes a gemstone that captures both the eye and the imagination. This exquisite blue spinel, weighing 0.68 carats, has embarked on a journey that began deep within the mineral-rich grounds of Sri Lanka. Mined from age-old deposits, it has transformed from a raw, unassuming rock into a gemstone that mirrors the tranquil depths of the sky and sea. The Natural Gemstone Company takes immense pride in crafting this natural wonder, ensuring that each facet of the stone tells a story of geological marvel and human craftsmanship.

The spinel's oval shape, precisely measuring 6.44 x 5.50 x 2.97 mm, is a testament to artisanal precision. This open canvas is brought to life through a mixed brilliant cut, a technique that enhances the stone's inherent properties of light reflection. Each facet is meticulously crafted to catch even the faintest glimmers, allowing the medium color intensity to simmer like a muted twilight. The mixed cut elegantly diffuses light within the gemstone, enhancing its slight inclusions to add unparalleled character without detracting from its clarity. This dance of light and shadow bestows the spinel with a bewitching quality, drawing observers into its serene depths.

The final touch lies in its excellent polish, a surface so smooth that it feels almost like silk to the touch. Through our commitment at The Natural Gemstone Company, the spinel emerges as more than just a collectible. It is a personal narrative captured within the facets of one of nature's most splendid offerings. Each time light encounters its surface, the blue spinel not only reflects its surroundings but transcends them, echoing the rich cultural and geological legacy of its origin. Whether set in a piece of jewelry or cherished as a standalone gem, this blue spinel offers a timeless connection to nature's artistry.
