0.74 Ct. Greenish Blue Spinel from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This exquisite transparent 0.74 carat round greenish blue spinel is a rare find offered exclusively by The Natural Gemstone Company, a piece destined to join the collection of those who appreciate the finest natural treasures. Cut in a classic faceted style with a mixed brilliant cut, this gem measures 5.07 by 5.04 by 4.02 mm, and displays a dark color intensity that reveals deep, oceanic tones under varied light, a look that reads as both mysterious and refined. The clarity is graded very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, allowing for exceptional transparency and a clean appearance to the naked eye, while the excellent polish ensures lively reflections from the crown to the pavilion. This spinel is from Ceylon Sri Lanka, and it is entirely natural with no enhancement, making it an authentic and ethical choice for collectors and bespoke jewelers. Availability is deliberately limited, each stone is hand selected, and the possibility to own this exact hue and size is rare, creating an opportunity to be part of an elite group who may wear or commission a one of one setting that showcases its singular beauty.

Beyond its visual allure, this spinel is also prized for its durable nature, making it suitable for fine jewelry intended for regular wear. Spinel ranks at 8 on the Mohs scale, which places it well above common gemstones like quartz at 7, and just below corundum varieties such as sapphire and ruby which are rated at 9, while remaining understandably softer than diamond at 10. This hardness ensures that the gem resists everyday scratching and maintains its polished facets, yet it still benefits from thoughtful settings that provide protection at the girdle and bezel, especially for pieces that will be worn daily. The combination of substantial hardness, full transparency, immaculate polish, and a deep greenish blue color creates a gemstone that is both practical and profoundly rare. For collectors, designers, and patrons seeking an exclusive center stone with elegance and long term wearability, this 0.74 carat Ceylon spinel from The Natural Gemstone Company is an invitation to own something exceptional and enduring.
