Buy Spinel for the following reason

Spinel could be the most underrated gemstone we have. In ancient times, spinels were as highly thought of as rubies or sapphires, and they have a comparable clarity, depth and range of colors as well as durability.

Nowadays people are rediscovering the fine qualities that have seen spinels decorate many of the crown jewels of royalty in Europe and Asia.

Spinel Colors - Grey Spinel, Blue, Red and more

Spinels can be found in a wide range of colors but it is the deep reds and the cobalt blues that are the most valuable.

Violet, pink and gray spinels are more common and less expensive but make stunning gemstones that are getting more and more popular amongst jewelry designers.

In recent years the grey spinel has become more popular with jewelry designers. The Metallic grey color is quite special in the gemstone world. This color is perfect for rings worn at night time.

Spinel Gemstone Species

Generally, spinels are just the single species which are separated by their color - red spinel, gray spinel and so on. They are all made up of the same mineral with traces of elements such as chromium, iron or cobalt causing the colors.

Spinel for Sale Price

Although perhaps not as expensive as the finest rubies and sapphire, spinel is still a premium priced gemstone especially the vivid red and blue examples.

Other colors such as violet, gray, light pink, purple are lovely gemstones which can be found at much more reasonable prices.

Black spinels are the least expensive and are often bought for their spiritual power as well as their dramatic looks.

Of course, as with all gemstones, clarity and cut will have a major affect on the price of spinels and most should be at least eye-clean.

A good quality 1 carat spinel can cost somewhere from $150 to $500 in colors like red or blue.

Spinel Carat/cts Weight

Large spinels with a weight above 2 or 3 carats are exceedingly rare and the price will reflect this with price per carat rising dramatically as the stones get larger.

Top quality red spinels may be $1000 per carat at around one carat in weight but will quickly hit $2000 per carat over 2 carats in weight and may reach $5000 per carat if it is a top quality gemstone that is more than 5 carats.

The less rare violet and gray stones can be bought for between $20 and $200 per carat and the black examples much less no matter the size.

What jewelry is Spinel suitable for?

Spinels bright luster and notable sparkle make them an excellent choice for fine quality jewelry items such as engagement rings or matching jewelry sets.

I really enjoy browsing through GemSelect. The selection is always marvelous and I love how detailed everything is described. The only thing I noticed is that when browsing through my phone, the videos of the gems do not load. If there were more videos of the gems, that would be amazing, though I understand that is a lot of work on GemSelect's part! Checking out is also very fast and easy, and I love that the return policy is very good, though I hope I don't have to use it anytime soon.
