Product description

Introducing a truly exquisite gemstone from The Natural Gemstone Company—an outstanding 1.16-carat violet spinel that beautifully captures the allure and rarity aficionados of fine gemstones seek. This particular gem is a testament to nature's awe-inspiring beauty and an expert cutter's skill, showcasing dimensions of 7.17 x 5.25 x 3.62 mm that give it a poised and elegant stature in any jewelry setting. Its cushion shape, combined with a mixed brilliant cut, enhances the stone's natural brilliance and fire, infusing any accessory with an unparalleled vibrancy that appeals to both traditional and modern tastes.

Gemstones are valued by several key criteria, with weight playing a critical role in determining their worth and rarity. This 1.16-carat spinel stands out not just for its size but for the balance that its weight provides in amplifying its natural beauty without being overwhelmingly opulent. Its modest yet significant carat weight offers flexibility, making it an excellent choice for various settings, such as rings, pendants, or earrings. This allows the wearer to enjoy a piece that is both substantial and versatile. Larger than many regularly available spinels, its carat weight reinforces its rarity, as spinels of this quality and size are increasingly sought after by collectors who recognize their investment potential.

Spinels originate from several regions around the globe, but this particular gemstone hails from the renowned mines of Ceylon, also known as Sri Lanka, which is reputed for yielding some of the world's most captivating gemstones. The geographical origins of this violet spinel add to its mystique and desirability, being a prized source since ancient times. Regarded since antiquity for its vibrant colors and crystal clarity, Ceylonese spinels reflect a tradition of quality and a legacy steeped in the history of elite craftsmanship. This origin guarantees not only the gemstone's authenticity but also affirms its value, as gemstones from this region are considered a premium for those building a discerning collection.

An eye-clean clarity grade elevates this spinel’s appeal, indicating an almost flawless appearance when assessed at eye level without magnification. This enhances its allure for jewelers and collectors who demand a perfect visual presentation without inclusions that could mar its elegance. Its medium-light color intensity offers a delicate yet vivid display, allowing the violet hues to captivate and mesmerize, symbolizing both luxury and subtlety. The gem's excellent polish further emphasizes its premium status, allowing its surfaces to reflect light with striking brilliance. Together, these characteristics contribute to an overall impression of sophistication and refinement, forging a tangible connection to the elegant charm this gemstone embodies.

By acquiring this 1.16-carat cushion-shaped violet spinel from The Natural Gemstone Company, buyers possess more than just a gemstone—they gain a lasting legacy. Its mixture of impressive weight, superior clarity, and esteemed origin means it is not simply a piece of beauty, but a significant acquisition for connoisseurs and investors alike. This spinel will undoubtedly retain, if not increase, its thrall over time, reflecting well on the educated buyer's taste and foresight. Each purchase from our collection is accompanied by our guarantee of authenticity and quality, ensuring that every piece you select is as magnificent as it is meaningful.
