0.67 ct Gray Spinel - Round

At 0.67 carats, this spinel from Sri Lanka carries its gray color through a round cut, measuring 5.5 x 3.5 mm.

Spinel is the gemstone long mistaken for ruby in old crown jewels; in its own right it grows as a hard, brilliant, untreated red, pink, or blue. Sri Lanka's gem gravels have been worked continuously for more than two thousand years. It carries no treatment of any kind, so the color you see is the color that came out of the ground.

A natural spinel small enough to wear every day and real enough to mean it, not a lab stone and not glass. Hand-selected and photographed by Caveman Gems in good light, shown as honestly as a screen allows.
