Imagine holding a moment that will live on, a private spark that glows every time you look down, a gift that keeps giving joy and quiet wonder. This is what our 1.32 carat oval pinkish purple spinel offers, a gem that feels like a promise. Its graceful oval shape measures 7.10 by 5.81 by 4.34 millimeters, a perfect size to sit elegantly on a ring, pendant, or bespoke piece that becomes a daily companion. Cut into a mixed brilliant that balances scintillation and depth, this transparent spinel has a clarity grade of very very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which means the natural inclusions are whisper light and do nothing to dim the fresh, joyful light that pours from its facets. The color reads as a sophisticated pinkish purple with medium intense saturation, a hue that can read feminine and bold at once, intimate and unmistakable, and its excellent polish ensures every facet greets the light with an optimistic flash. No enhancement has been applied, and its origin is Ceylon Sri Lanka, a provenance that carries the romance of old world gem markets and the integrity of natural formation.

When you set this spinel into an heirloom worthy design, it will quickly become the heart of any jewelry it inhabits, a center of attention that never shouts, but always commands affection. The mixed brilliant cut has been expertly executed so that light travels through the stone, breaking into lively fire and soft flashes of color that change as the day turns. In morning light the pink tones feel tender, like the beginning of a blush, and under evening lamps the purples deepen into an almost regal tone that holds stories. Because the gem is transparent and very very slightly included at eye level, the play of light remains clean and vivid, which means that years from now you will still find new angles of brilliance and subtle surprises in its depths. The excellent polish is not cosmetic elegance alone, it is a long term promise that the surface will continue to return light beautifully, that the spinel will wear like a memory that grows better the more it is loved.
