2.11 Ct. Pink Spinel from Burma (Myanmar)

A rare Burmese pink spinel from The Natural Gemstone Company carries with it a lineage that reaches back to the courtly treasuries of Southeast Asia, where spinels were treasured and often mistaken for rubies by early gem traders. This particular stone is a beautifully transparent, 2.11 carat pink spinel, measuring 9.12 by 7.20 by 4.11 mm, cut in a refined faceted style with a step cut that emphasizes architectural lines and a graceful table. Its intense pink hue reads with depth and poise under varied light, its excellent polish yielding a clean, mirror like finish, and its clarity is graded slightly included when evaluated at eye level, which lends character without diminishing the gem's luminous appeal. Heat treated to enhance stability and consistency of tone, and originating from Burma Myanmar which is renowned for producing some of the world’s most esteemed spinels, this gem speaks to collectors and designers who value both provenance and permanence.

For bespoke jewelers and discerning clients this fancy shaped pink spinel is an ideal centerpiece, its compact yet substantial dimensions allowing for versatile design choices, from a dignified solitaire ring to an elegant pendant or a pair of asymmetric earrings. The step cut gives long, refined facets that catch light in broad planes, making it exceptionally suited to settings that celebrate clean geometry and classical balance, and its slightly included clarity provides a natural signature that talented setters can incorporate into a narrative of authenticity. For those seeking contrast or a dramatic accent, consider pairing this pink spinel with a Fire Opal as a companion stone, Fire Opal lending a warm, lively flash that complements the spinel’s cool intensity. At The Natural Gemstone Company we are happy to discuss custom mounting options, metal choices such as 14 karat or 18 karat gold and platinum, and design ideas that honor the timeless character of this gem, ensuring your finished piece becomes an heirloom that bridges ancient tradition and contemporary craftsmanship.
