Spinel is a gemstone known for its vibrant colors, brilliance, and durability. It is a magnesium aluminum oxide mineral (MgAlâ‚‚Oâ‚„) that crystallizes in the cubic system, often forming octahedral or twinned crystals. Spinel comes in a variety of colors, including red, pink, blue, purple, orange, and even black, depending on trace elements like iron, chromium, and cobalt.
Historically, spinel was often mistaken for other gemstones, particularly ruby and sapphire, due to its similar appearance. Some famous “rubies†in royal collections, such as the Black Princeâ€TMs Ruby in the British Crown Jewels, are actually spinels.
Spinel is valued for its excellent hardness (8 on the Mohs scale), making it a durable choice for jewelry. It has high clarity and a bright luster, often appearing more brilliant than corundum (ruby and sapphire). Unlike many gemstones, spinel is rarely treated or enhanced, which makes natural specimens particularly desirable.
The finest spinels are found in Myanmar (Burma), Sri Lanka, Vietnam, and Tanzania. In recent years, spinel has gained popularity as an alternative to ruby, especially since it is more affordable while still offering stunning beauty.

Waarom overbieden gebruikers zichzelf?
Wanneer een bod wordt geplaatst, is dit het maximale bedrag dat een persoon bereid is te bieden voor het product. Ons systeem zal dan automatisch bieden namens de bieder, waarbij het bod stapsgewijs wordt verhoogd tot het maximum om hun positie als hoogste bieder te behouden.
Wanneer er een pictogram is dat 'Automatisch bod' aangeeft, betekent dit dat ons systeem actief biedingen plaatst voor de bieder op basis van hun maximale bod. Dit kan lijken alsof bieders zichzelf overbieden, maar het is gewoon een resultaat van het systeem dat het bod bijwerkt om de maximale limiet van de bieder weer te geven.
