Natural Purple Spinel 6.70 Carats

Prince Poet's Purple. This large oval weighs in at 6.70 carats, in a magnificently moody shade of royal violet. In the ancient world, the only stable purple dye was made from a shellfish called the Murex. This made purple goods so outrageously costly and rare that only emperors were permitted to wear them. Purple retains its regal air today, in the form of this incredible Purple Spinel. Spinel is prized for its hardness, brillance, and depth of color.  Call us today for your free design consultation!
