This is the red spinel that built the myth. Half the "rubies" in the old crown jewels were stones exactly like this one.
Natural red spinel — untreated, no heat, no enhancement.
Sourced in Burma, cut and polished in Thailand.
0.87ct · cushion cut · eye-clean
Untreated spinel is a living colour. In daylight this one opens up completely; in shade it draws back and goes darker, closer to wine. Nothing has been heated or filled to force it to stay put — what you see is the stone doing its own work.
I chose this spinel myself in Bangkok — by hand, in daylight.
Untreated stones are never identical, so this colour won't come back.
The setting I can make again. The stone I can't.
Spinel is one of the most underrated gemstones in fine jewellery — rarer than sapphire in many colours, naturally vivid, and never treated.
14K / 585 white gold · four-claw solitaire setting on a slim polished band.
Nothing competes with the stone. The whole ring is built to hold one colour.
Gold weight: 2.00g.
Hallmarked by the London Assay Office — guaranteed purity, recognised worldwide.
Size: UK/AUS N | US/CANADA 6¾ | EU 54 | 17.2mm.
