3.54 Ct. Spinel from Burma (Myanmar)

This exceptional heart shaped pink spinel from Burma is offered to a select few by The Natural Gemstone Company, a rare jewel that speaks to discerning tastes and refined collections. Weighing 3.54 carats and measuring 8.88 by 12.05 by 5.39 millimeters, this transparent gemstone is cut into a romantic heart with a mixed brilliant facet arrangement that maximizes fire and scintillation. The pink displays a medium intense saturation that is lively without overwhelming, a hue that carries both feminine charm and unmistakable presence, and its excellent polish allows light to dance from facet to facet with crisp, mirror like brilliance. Evaluated at eye level the clarity is very very slightly included, which means that the inclusions are minimal and do not distract from the gem’s overall purity, and the stone has been heat treated to enhance color stability and depth, a traditional and stable enhancement that is fully disclosed. Origin plays a defining role in this spinel’s identity, and with provenance from Burma Myanmar this piece arrives with the heritage of a storied gem producing region that adds provenance and desirability to an already exquisite specimen.

Owning this heart shaped spinel is an invitation into an exclusive circle of collectors who appreciate both rarity and character, because pink spinels of this size and quality are seldom available and rarely cut into such an elegant heart silhouette. Each angle and polish facet has been considered to produce a bespoke result that flatters the stone’s color and body tone, making it ideal for a signature ring or an heirloom pendant. Unlike mass produced gems, this spinel is a single, identifiable treasure that will be set and cherished, not duplicated. The mixed brilliant cut offers a balance of brilliance and classic appeal, ensuring light return and lively sparkle under all lighting conditions, and the heart motif conveys unmistakable sentiment for engagements, milestones, or meaningful luxury purchases. When you acquire this piece through The Natural Gemstone Company you are not merely purchasing a gem, you are acquiring a private experience, including personalized attention to setting recommendations, a detailed report of the gem’s properties, and the assurance that this heart shaped spinel is a limited opportunity in the marketplace.

Durability is often a primary concern for wearable gemstones, and this pink spinel stands out in practical terms, as well as beauty. Spinel rates eight on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness, which places it well above common gems like quartz which scores seven, and on par with other robust choices, enabling it to resist everyday abrasion and maintain its polish and facet crispness over time. Compared to corundum varieties such as ruby and sapphire which rate nine, spinel is only slightly softer yet remains substantially more scratch resistant than many popular stones, meaning you can enjoy this heart shaped stone in rings and bracelets with confidence when appropriate settings and care protocols are followed. Heat treatment, the enhancement applied to this spinel, is a stable and widely accepted practice that improves color without compromising structural integrity, and it does not detract from the stone’s longevity. For settings we recommend secure mounting styles that protect the girdle and points, for example a subtle bezel or a protective gallery combined with prongs to show off the heart outline while minimizing exposure to knocks, and we can arrange bespoke mounting options that honor the gem’s proportions and ensure daily wearability.

Because pieces of this caliber are infrequently available we encourage a thoughtful but timely decision for collectors and connoisseurs who recognize true rarity, and The Natural Gemstone Company is prepared to assist with bespoke services reserved for our exclusive clients. We offer guidance on custom design, secure shipping, and long term care instructions to preserve the gem’s allure, including gentle cleaning with mild soap and a soft brush, avoiding ultrasonic cleaners if the setting contains fragile metals or other stones, and routine inspections of prongs and mountings. This heart shaped Burmese pink spinel is more than a beautiful object, it is an heirloom in the making, a deliberate choice for someone who values nuance, provenance, and refined rarity.
