This natural Purple Spinel weighs 0.61 carat and is fashioned in an elegant cushion mixed cut, combining softly rounded proportions with a faceting arrangement designed to enhance the gemstone’s light purple colour and transparent appearance.
The gemstone is accompanied by ALGT Colored Stone Identification Report No. 77667681, which identifies the specimen as Natural Spinel, variety Purple Spinel.
Measuring approximately 5.27 × 4.48 × 2.86 mm, the stone presents a compact cushion outline suitable for individual jewellery design. Its transparent body allows light to interact effectively with the internal facet structure, while the light purple colour gives the gemstone a refined and understated appearance.
Purple Spinel is valued for its natural range of violet, lavender and purple hues. This specimen displays a light purple body colour, producing a softer visual character than more deeply saturated purple material while retaining the brightness and transparency associated with gem-quality Spinel.
The mixed-cut facet arrangement combines different facet styles to balance brilliance, colour presentation and overall shape retention. In this specimen, the cushion outline provides a classic and versatile face-up appearance suitable for rings, pendants or other custom jewellery applications.
Spinel belongs to the cubic crystal system and is naturally singly refractive, contributing to its characteristic clarity and bright surface reflections. Unlike many coloured gemstones, Spinel is also frequently encountered without routine heat treatment.
ALGT records no indication of heating for this gemstone. This wording is retained exactly as reported and should not be interpreted beyond the scope of the laboratory observation.
The gemstone is stated as originating from Africa. Unless specifically confirmed by an origin-determination laboratory report, this should be regarded as the reported geographic source rather than a laboratory-certified origin.
The gemstone is supplied sealed and accompanied by its original ALGT identification report, preserving the direct connection between the stone and its laboratory documentation.
With its transparent body, delicate light purple colour and elegant cushion mixed cut, this 0.61 ct natural Purple Spinel is an attractive choice for fine jewellery or gemstone collecting. Its documented natural identity and lack of indication of heating add further gemmological interest to the specimen.
