1.34 Ct. Spinel from Tanzania

At The Natural Gemstone Company, we are proud to present a beautiful transparent 1.34 carat cushion-shaped purplish blue spinel, distinguished by its dimensions of 7.77 x 6.28 x 3.64 mm. This exquisite gemstone takes you on a journey back millions of years, to a time when it naturally formed beneath the surface of the earth in the mineral-rich regions of Tanzania. Spinels were shaped under immense pressure and high temperatures over eons, slowly crystallizing into the captivating stones we admire today. As they emerged through the earth's geological swirls, their unique characteristics captured the essence of time and nature, creating masterpieces that would ultimately find their way into the hands of discerning collectors and jewelry enthusiasts.

The spinel's allure is enhanced by its mixed brilliant cut, a technique that showcases the gemstone's vibrant play of light. This particular cut maximizes the reflection of light from its surfaces, highlighting the stone's inherent brilliance and adding a captivating shimmer to its purplish blue hues. With a clarity grade of eye clean, this spinel reveals no visible inclusions when evaluated at eye level, allowing its pure colors to shine through without distraction. Its medium intense color intensity is an ideal balance, offering depth and vibrancy that will appeal to the educated buyer looking for something truly special.

What makes this spinel even more valuable is its lack of enhancement. While many gemstones on the market undergo various treatments to improve their appearance, this spinel remains completely natural. Its unaltered state is a testament to its rarity and the wonder of nature's craftsmanship. The excellent polish further elevates its quality, ensuring a smooth surface that enhances both its aesthetic appeal and tactile experience. Originating from Tanzania, a renowned source for premium spinels, this gemstone carries with it the rich legacy and authenticity associated with its homeland.
