Spinel (gem crystal)

Item Description

Every once in a while I like to throw a gem CRYSTAL into the gemstone auctions. A piece like this would make a great match for a rough and cut Spinel set. This piece is not a faceted stone, but rather a gem quality Ruby Spinel crystal that would easily be wirewrapped into a great piece of jewelry, or used as a reference piece to match a gemstone that you might have from this well known gem district. The crystal has a very attractive pinkish-red color and is pretty sharp, unlike many of the rounded crystals that are found in the various streams in Burma where this material originates. Do not miss out on this little beauty.
