Purple Spinel — 3.28 ct Emerald Cut | Loose Spinel
Why we chose this stone
The emerald cut is all about clean lines and long, mirror-like steps, and this 3.28 ct loose natural spinel shows it off with a wide, open table framed by neatly stepped facets. Instead of the sparkle of a brilliant cut, it offers a more architectural play of light, with broad flashes that move across the surface as the stone is turned. The rectangular outline and trimmed corners make it a striking centre stone for a ring and a good fit for a sleek, modern setting or a three-stone design. Spinel registers 8 on the Mohs scale and is singly refractive, so it is hard-wearing and keeps its polish well. Natural spinel at this size is a notable find for collectors and for clients commissioning something distinctive. It is sold loose by Hope Diamonds, a Perth-based specialist in provenance-led gemstones, and can be shipped Australia-wide for your jeweller to set.

I’ve purchased several diamonds and a range of other stones including opals, sapphires and more from Julie. The quality and price point was excellent. Her calm, relaxed approach to creating bespoke jewellery has been spot on every time. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

The experience I had throughout this process was amazing. Not knowing much about this area, Julie took the time to explain everything to me in detail, which gave me a lot of comfort.I could not fault the price, the quality and experience I had with Hope Diamonds. A very very successful journey with Julie and the team :) I highly recommend Hope Diamonds.
