Spinel is a tough and treasured gemstone. Considered as being so perfect, in Burma they are said to be “polished by the spirits”. Its natural lively colours, ranging from red to blue and purple, combine with the stone's remarkable brilliance and clarity.
In ancient times, Spinel was treasured by kings and emperors in Asia. Even now, the British Imperial Crown features a large red spinel.
Being less known in Australia allows us to source Spinel at a cheaper price for you. Spinel measures 14.5 on Avant Jewellery's Durability Scale, well above our 11 minimum.
Details: Oval black spinel and white gold pendant measuring 9mm x 7mm with a choice of a 40cm or 45cm 9ct white gold chain.
