1.21 Ct. Purple Spinel from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

A rare and compelling treasure, this transparent purple spinel weighs 1.21 carat, a weight that instantly elevates its desirability and market value. At 1.21 carat this spinel sits in a distinguished size category for colored gemstones where each tenth of a carat significantly enhances rarity and price per carat, making this stone an investment quality choice for the discerning collector. The oval shape measures 7.46 x 5.50 x 3.82 mm, a perfect balance of presence and wearability, and the faceted mixed brilliant cut maximizes light return to intensify the innate purple hue. With intense color intensity, very very slightly included clarity evaluated at eye level, and an excellent polish, the gem presents a remarkable combination of purity and fire. Origin certified as Ceylon Sri Lanka, and with no enhancement, this spinel carries the pedigree and natural authenticity that connoisseurs seek, a true example of nature presented in its most honest form.
