1.10 Ct. Spinel from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

At The Natural Gemstone Company, we take great pride in presenting our transparent 1.10 carat pear-shaped blue spinel, a gemstone that epitomizes the quintessential blend of elegance and technical excellence. With dimensions measuring 7.62 x 5.58 x 3.56 mm, this spinel has been meticulously fashioned into a pear shape, a cut renowned for its ability to maximize both brilliance and light performance. The gemstone's mixed brilliant cut further enhances its faceting style, meticulously orchestrating the reflection of light within each prism-like facet to produce a radiant display akin to the mesmerization induced by twilight’s first stars. Its eye-clean clarity grade underscores the absence of any inclusions visible to the naked eye, attesting to the exceptional quality that connoisseurs have come to expect from us.

The color intensity of this remarkable blue spinel is medium, lending it a vibrant yet sophisticated hue that will captivate discerning collectors and gemstone enthusiasts alike. The vivid saturation combined with the stone's crystalline transparency ensures an ambiance of depth and richness within its blue spectrum, unparalleled by synthetic counterparts. Unlike lab-grown gemstones, this natural spinel, with its origin in esteemed Ceylon (Sri Lanka), narrates a unique geological journal, one spanning eons beneath the earth's crust, an authenticity that human synthesis cannot replicate.

Natural gemstones possess distinct advantages over their lab-grown counterparts, largely due to the intrinsic rarity, historical significance, and individuality each gemstone incurs through its natural formation process. Lab-grown alternatives, while chemically and physically akin, lack the natural variants' exclusive geological backstory that encompasses tens of millions of years of formation. When engaging with a gemstone like our Ceylon spinel, one does not merely purchase a stone but invests in an individualized narrative forged within the dynamic embrace of earth's geology. Our spinel's origin from Sri Lanka often adds not only distinction but also an inherent authenticity recognized and revered by aficionados who comprehend the historical mining prestige of such locales.

Each facet receives careful attention to symmetry under the guidance of expert gem cutters who understand the profound nuances of each stone they handle. The spinel boasts an excellent polish, rendering a surface that exhibits impeccable lustre. This precise craftsmanship ensures that the stone not only reflects light with uncompromising efficiency but also highlights every contour of its faceted form. An expertly fashioned spinel of this calibre affirms the symbiosis of artistry and natural splendor, a harmony at the heart of our company's ethos.
