1.47 Ct. Spinel from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This is a rare offering from The Natural Gemstone Company, a single transparent purplish pink spinel, weighing 1.47 carats, presented as a stunning oval shape that captures attention the instant it catches light. The carat weight is the heart of this piece, and at 1.47 carats this spinel occupies a very special place between delicate refinement and bold presence, a size that reads as premium without overpowering fine jewelry designs. A gem of this carat weight, when coupled with exceptional natural color and superior craftsmanship in the cut, becomes a statement of discernment and taste, a selection reserved for collectors and clients who demand intrinsic rarity and a provenance of excellence. Each 1.47 carat spinel we present has been sourced with care and inspected by our experienced team, and this particular specimen exemplifies the kind of premium quality that defines our curated offerings.

The gem measures 8.23 by 6.25 by 3.91 millimeters, a proportion that gives the oval form graceful elongation and a comfortable visual scale on a finger or pendant. The mixed brilliant cut has been executed to maximize scintillation and internal life, blending the fire and brilliance of a modern precision approach with the warmth and depth that traditional faceting brings out in spinel. At eye level this stone is eye clean, meaning inclusions do not distract the gaze and the surface presents an immaculate window into its core, which enhances perceived value above and beyond the carat weight alone. The polish is excellent, allowing facets to mirror light with crisp reflections that elevate the medium color intensity of the purplish pink hue, a tone that reads as sophisticated and slightly rare, distinct from more common pinks by its subtle purplish undertone that changes with viewing angle and illumination.

No enhancement has been applied to this spinel, a detail that significantly enhances its desirability in discerning circles, because natural beauty that has not been altered is inherently more collectible and more exclusive. Origin is Ceylon, Sri Lanka, a region celebrated for producing spinels with exceptional color saturation and clarity, and provenance from this storied source adds narrative value to the gem that collectors and bespoke clients prize. At 1.47 carats this stone is large enough to anchor a custom solitaire ring or an heirloom pendant, yet intimate enough to be set in a refined cluster or halo, depending on the commission. The balance of size and quality here means that the carat weight is not merely a number, but a measure of tangible presence and rarity, the kind of gem that commands attention while rewarding the wearer with a timeless elegance that does not shout, but asserts its distinction.

Availability of such a naturally colored, eye clean, untreated purplish pink spinel of 1.47 carats is extremely limited, and that scarcity is precisely why The Natural Gemstone Company reserves this piece for clients who understand that true luxury is about uniqueness and provenance, not mass production. Owning this gem means joining an exclusive group of collectors and connoisseurs who value natural origin, meticulous cutting, and an honest representation of quality. If you seek a bespoke setting that will honor the sparkle and proportions of this oval spinel, we are ready to advise on design, metal choice, and mounting that will showcase its 1.47 carat weight to greatest effect.
