2.15 Ct. Pinkish Purple Spinel from Burma (Myanmar)

This cushion shaped spinel weighs 2.15 carats, and presents a transparent, pinkish purple hue with a medium color intensity. The stone measures 7.94 by 7.43 by 4.15 millimeters, and is faceted in a mixed brilliant cut that balances table brilliance with pavilion depth. Clarity has been evaluated at eye level as very very slightly included, which allows for clean visual appeal to the unaided eye while preserving natural character under magnification. The polish on the pavilion and crown is graded excellent, and the piece shows no enhancement, preserving the inherent properties of the material. Origin is identified as Burma Myanmar, and these precise gemological specifications support informed decision making for both designers and collectors.

The proportions and cutting style of this spinel are optimized for scintillation and light performance in everyday wear. The mixed brilliant orientation creates lively flash from the table and crown facets, while the cushion outline provides a classic silhouette that works well in a variety of settings, including solitaire rings, halo designs, and pendants. At 2.15 carats the gem balances presence with wearability, and the modest depth of 4.15 millimeters helps designers maintain comfortable bezel or prong profiles. Because the stone is transparent and free of enhancements, its color and clarity are stable under normal lighting, and the very very slightly included grade means that typical use will not require special handling beyond standard care for colored gemstones. The combination of medium color intensity and an even distribution of tone makes this spinel versatile for warm or cool metal pairings, and the excellent polish contributes to a refined finished appearance when set.
