1.47 Ct. Bluish Grey Spinel from Burma (Myanmar)

This exceptional bluish grey spinel is a rare opportunity to own a truly distinguished gemstone, one that will define a bespoke heirloom for the discerning collector. At 1.47 carats, this round faceted gem commands attention with a substantial face up presence rarely found in spinels of this hue. The stone measures 7.07 by 7.05 by 4.14 mm, a balanced set of proportions that delivers an elegant table and a pleasing depth, and it has been carefully fashioned in a mixed brilliant cut to maximize scintillation and fire. The color intensity is classified as intense, presenting a sophisticated bluish grey tone that sits between classic blue and soft steel, a shade that reads as quietly luxurious in daylight and intriguingly dramatic under evening light. The clarity grade is slightly included as evaluated at eye level, a natural characteristic that affirms the gem is a genuine treasure from nature rather than a mass produced simulant. An excellent polish brings the surface to a mirror sheen, while professional heat treatment has been applied to stabilize and enhance the purity of color in a manner that is industry standard for achieving the highest aesthetic presentation.

The size and clarity of this spinel make it an ideal centerpiece for a statement ring or a singular pendant that commands notice without ostentation. At 1.47 carats, this stone is large enough to anchor a confident design, offering an imposing presence on a solitaire setting or a refined contrast when paired with delicate diamond accents. The mixed brilliant cut balances brilliant facets on the pavilion with a modified crown, creating a dance of light that flatters the bluish grey tone and gives the gem a lively, three dimensional appearance when set. Slight inclusions visible at eye level do not detract from the gem, they instead contribute to its character and provenance, assuring that what you wear is a natural, storied gem with individuality. The dimensions of 7.07 by 7.05 by 4.14 mm yield a generous table that allows the intense color to read boldly across the surface, delivering both depth and presence, and the excellent polish intensifies light return for a luminous face up effect that makes the stone exceptional when worn at center stage.
