Here is a lovely Spinel gem that will look excellent in a piece of jewelry. It is a nicely saturated purple. The stone glitters beautifully when moved in the hand. I just love Spinels for their silvery shades of color and aluminum like luster that looks particularly fine in jewelry. This gem will certainly be perfect for the center stone of a ring if so desired, but is certainly a collection grade stone as well! It is completely natural and untreated. Cut at Kosnar Gems, Colorado, USA.  Enjoy!
