1.84 Ct. Spinel from Tanzania

One beautiful transparent 1.84 carat purplish pink spinel, emerald cut, offers a compelling combination of size, symmetry, and natural color that will appeal to the informed collector and custom jeweler alike. Precise dimensions at 6.81 by 5.91 by 5.05 mm place this gem squarely in the desirable weight range for a striking center stone, while the emerald cut, with its long step facets and trimmed corners, accentuates the stone's clarity and provides elegant, architectural light return. Graded as very slightly included at eye level, this spinel displays only minimal internal characteristics that do not detract from its visual appeal, and its excellent polish contributes to crisp facet junctions and a refined face up appearance. The medium intense purplish pink hue is evenly distributed and lively under natural and artificial light, and importantly, this specimen is natural with no enhancement, delivering the kind of untreated integrity that educated buyers prize. Origin information further enhances provenance, this spinel coming from Tanzania, a source recognized for producing high quality, vividly colored spinels, and the gem benefits from the robust physical properties of spinel, including a Mohs hardness of approximately 8, which provides good wearability for everyday jewelry.

For custom jewelry, this emerald cut 1.84 carat spinel is especially advantageous, because its proportions and step cut geometry lend themselves to a wide range of settings and design languages. The stone's rectangular outline and strong face up presence make it ideal as the focal point in solitaire engagement rings, three stone rings, halo settings, and bespoke pendants where the clean lines of the emerald cut can be paired with pavé or tapered side stones to emphasize color and table size. The trimmed corners of the emerald cut also allow secure prong settings or low profile bezels that protect the girdle and corners for active wear, while the medium intense purplish pink color pairs beautifully with warm metals such as rose and yellow gold as well as cool metals like platinum, offering design flexibility. Because the spinel is unenhanced and well polished, you are commissioning a durable, honest centerpiece that will age gracefully, and our team at The Natural Gemstone Company is available to advise on exact mounting proportions and complementary side stone choices to ensure the final custom piece optimizes brilliance, durability, and aesthetic balance.
