1.35 Ct. Pinkish Purple Spinel from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

One beautiful transparent 1.35 carat radiant shape pinkish purple spinel, from Ceylon Sri Lanka, offers a combination of natural color, clarity, and cut that stands out when compared to other market options. At 7.29 x 5.25 x 4.16 mm, this stone occupies a sweet spot for custom jewelry because it is large enough to serve as a confident center stone, yet compact enough to fit into delicate and modern settings without overwhelming the design. The radiant cut maximizes sparkle through a smart mix of step and brilliant facets, and the excellent polish enhances light return so the medium light color intensity reads lively and appealing under many lighting conditions. With a clarity graded as very very slightly included evaluated at eye level, the stone presents near clean visuals to the viewer, giving it a higher perceived value than many commercially available spinels that rely on treatments or lower clarity grades. Unlike heat treated sapphires or fracture filled gems, this spinel has no enhancement, making it a natural, stable choice for customers seeking authenticity and long term performance.

For custom jewelry, this spinel is exceptionally versatile and offers a better balance of size, shape, and durability than many alternatives. The radiant outline provides straight edges and clipped corners that sit very predictably in bezel, prong, and halo mountings, allowing jewelers to design confident settings without excessive modification. At 1.35 carat the stone works beautifully as a solitaire engagement gem, a halo center, or the anchor of a three stone composition, and the 7.29 x 5.25 x 4.16 mm measurements are ideal for CAD modeling and bezel templates, reducing fabrication time and cost. Because it is unenhanced, the color will remain consistent through routine wear and cleaning, offering collectors and designers superior resale and heirloom potential compared to treated material. The Natural Gemstone Company sources and certifies this spinel with provenance and clear grading, which makes it a reliable selection for bespoke commissions. For clients comparing options, this Ceylon radiant pinkish purple spinel delivers an elegant balance of natural beauty, practical dimensions, and investment quality, making it a superior choice for custom rings, pendants, and distinctive boutique designs.
