Item Description
Spinel is one of those gems that comes in a great range of colors. Most people are familiar with the Ruby Spinels, for their eye-catching color. This gem is an attractive, rich pinkish red color, "Step Cushion" cut gemstone. It is difficult to find superb quality Spinels like this, because of political upheaval in southeast Asia. It appears that these stones will soon be very very hard to come across and the days of the good Ruby Spinels may be dwindling. The high retail value on this stone is $300 per carat.
