2.11 Ct. Spinel from Tanzania

From the red soils and ancient rock formations of Tanzania, where the earth yields unexpected treasures to patient hands, this blue spinel began its journey. Miners working in small scale operations gently removed the host rock, following veins and pockets that have produced some of the world most remarkable spinels. The rough crystal showed a promise of deep blue that suggested presence and poise, and our cutters at The Natural Gemstone Company chose an emerald cut to release that promise. The long step facets and crisp corners of the emerald cut were selected to emphasize clarity and depth, and after hours of precise faceting the stone emerged as a transparent 2.11 carat emerald cut blue spinel, measuring 7.59 x 6.00 x 4.96 mm. Its surface received an excellent polish that allows light to traverse its interior with a calm and steady brilliance, and no enhancement was applied, leaving the gem in its pure, natural state.

This spinel carries an intense color intensity that reads as a rich, bold blue, a hue that speaks directly to personal power and distinction. At eye level the clarity is graded very slightly included, which adds a unique character without distracting from the gem strong presence. The natural blue of this stone evokes a lineage of adornment and meaning that spans cultures, where deep blue has long been associated with wisdom, confidence, and poised authority. Wear this gem as a centerpiece in a ring or a pendant and feel how its steady, saturated color anchors an ensemble, declaring intentionality and refined taste. As a representative of Tanzanian origin and as a piece curated by The Natural Gemstone Company, this spinel connects the story of the earth to contemporary craftsmanship, offering both provenance and personality. For collectors and those seeking a gemstone that symbolizes influence and individuality, this spinel offers a rare combination of natural origin, thoughtful cutting, and a bold, enduring color that commands attention.
