ABOUT THE ITEM
Spinel is a wonderful gem that occurs naturally in many different colors, even colorless. The most valued spinel colors are red, cobalt blue, vivid pink and orange, with the finest qualities rivaling high quality rubies and sapphires.
This magnificent 2.60 carat emerald cut natural blue spinel is accompanied by GIA Spinel Report #2213647689 stating it has not been heated. Its slightly dark blue hue resembles that of fine quality sapphire. It has a natural inclusion located at the upper left in the main photo, proving it to be unheated.
