Natural Purple Spinel – 1.27 Carat Oval Cut from Ceylon

Give your next jewelry design a personal touch with this 1.27 carat natural purple spinel from Ceylon (Sri Lanka). Its purple color and elongated oval outline make it a beautiful choice to consider for a bespoke ring, a delicate pendant or a natural gemstone collection.

Measuring approximately 8 × 6 × 3.5 mm, this untreated, earth-sourced gemstone has been cut and polished into an oval faceted stone. Its eye-clean clarity means inclusions are not readily visible to the unaided eye under normal viewing conditions.

An Oval Purple Gemstone for Your Custom Jewelry Design

Looking for an untreated oval purple spinel for bespoke jewelry? This loose gemstone offers several ways to create a piece that reflects your style:

  • A personal engagement ring: Explore an oval solitaire or a design with accent stones, with a setting selected by your jeweler for your lifestyle.
  • A meaningful promise ring: Let the purple gemstone take center stage in a simple, understated design.
  • An everyday-style pendant: Consider a classic vertical oval pendant, with the finished setting assessed by your jeweler for the intended wear.
  • A contemporary east-west ring: Set the oval horizontally for a different interpretation of this familiar shape.
  • A gemstone collection: Add an eye-clean, untreated Ceylon spinel to your selection of natural colored gemstones.

White gold can create a cool contrast, while yellow gold or rose gold offers a warmer combination. Your jewelry maker can help you compare metals and settings against the actual stone.

Considering an 8 × 6 mm semi-mount setting? These approximate dimensions are a useful starting point, but your jeweler should confirm the stone’s exact outline, depth and fit before selecting or modifying a mount.

Eye-Clean Clarity and Untreated Character

This natural purple spinel is listed as untreated, with no treatments applied. Its eye-clean description refers to its appearance during normal viewing; it does not mean the gemstone is free from all internal inclusions under magnification.

If you would like a closer look at the color, facets or clarity, please request additional photos or a video before purchasing.
