Freshly faceted Sri Lankan spinel just in from the lab. 3.47 carats. It says greyish violet on the certification but it looks light blue in natural sunlight and light violet color change under incandescent. The video is in natural light. Looks almost loupe clean. VVS quality. No abraded edges on the facet edges. Better than eye clean stone. High internal reflection and high luster stone as well.
When stones become included the stone becomes less lustrous and dull looking. Without proper cutting there is no internal reflection. Color should be flashing off the lower facets in a well cut stone. Buyers should always be looking for this in videos for themselves. Believe your own eyes and please beware about what some claim in descriptions. If every photo in auction is at the same angle beware. If the stone video and photos are not close up there may be something to hide. Learn the tricks and avoid the traps.
Sri Lankan spinel gemstone. I try to price my stones below other sellers and try to make sure all customers are getting a true gemstone at a bargain price.
There is an article on this site about blue spinel titled “The rarest of them all”. It is located in the learn section under Additional Gemstone Information.
Spinel is rarely treated or heated as it naturally comes without many inclusions and heating does nothing to increase the beauty of the stones.
Spinel is rapidly becoming more popular. I’ve heard many gem affectionados state it was their favourite gemstone. It was once thought to be sapphire or ruby depending upon the color. The imperial crown housed in the tower of London has a large red spinel which was once thought to be a red ruby. It is named the Black Prince’s Ruby and has a recorded history dating back to 1366 AD.
Cobalt is the main colorant in blue spinels and are especially rare. For me I prefer them over sapphires. The better price, less inclusions and lower cost make it the better value. It is also a hardness of 8 which is only slightly under sapphire so is good for everyday wearing.

Pourquoi les utilisateurs se surenchérissent-ils ?
Lorsqu'une enchère est placée, il s'agit du montant maximum qu'un utilisateur est prêt à enchérir pour le produit. Notre système enchérira ensuite automatiquement au nom de cet utilisateur, augmentant progressivement l'enchère pour maintenir sa position d'enchérisseur le plus élevé, jusqu'au maximum spécifié.
Lorsqu'il y a une icône indiquant "Enchère automatique", cela signifie que notre système place activement des enchères pour l'utilisateur en fonction de son enchère maximale. Cela peut donner l'impression que les utilisateurs surenchérissent eux-mêmes, mais c'est simplement le résultat de la mise à jour de l'enchère par le système pour refléter la limite maximale des utilisateurs.
