Nice brilliant reflection in this stone.  Extremely exocitic color. Brilliant reflection. Si inclusions. This stone has a divot out of the side but it doesn't jeopardize the integrity of the stone nor does it take away anything from it's beauty. After setting it wouldn't be something ever to worry about. This is an eye clean stone when looking down on the table of the stone. Only when looking at the side with light reflecting off can one see the divot in the side. I show a close up with the light reflecting so one can see the divot clearly and understand this will not be a problem. The stone has been drastically reduced because of this. Normal prices for a stone of this color and reflective cut would be over $35,000 USD without the fault. Anyone looking for a statement stone for a ring and not wanting to pay $35,000 or more this is your stone!

At 3.51 cts it's a rare size for spinel. Spinel are far more rare than precious rubies or sapphires yet found in the same gem gravels and at one time were considered to be the same stone until modern lab equipment became available.

This is from Luc Yen Vietnam.   This deposit is in the same marble deposit that occurs in Myanmar Burma.   Luc Yen is only around 750 kms from the Man Sin deposit where the Jedi spinel came from.

 
Luc Yen stones do not get treated.   No heat on the Luc Yen spinel.   Spinel do not respond to treatments like sapphire.  So rest assured this stone is 100% natural and untreated. 

 
Mined from under the rice fields in the alluvial gravels in the shallow valley near the original marble deposit.  Rubies and sapphire are also associated with this deposit similar to the Burma deposit.  I'm was a geologist before I became a gem enthusiast/gemologist.   My business plan is to bring the better quality gemstones to my customers at a better more fair price.
