Vibrant Red Spinel
Red Spinel! |
|
The vibrant, fiery color of this red spinel is elegantly arresting - an intoxicating blend of red hot embers and ripe strawberries. It is little wonder that red spinels are often mistaken for costlier, rarer rubies. In fact, the Black Prince Ruby set in the British Imperial State Crown is actually a striking red spinel. This fiery gemstone has long been a symbol of love and passion.
Red spinel is among the hardest of the colored gemstones - scoring 8 out of 10 on the Moh's hardness scale. Red spinel is exceeded in hardness only by sapphire, ruby and diamond. Thus, red spinel is an ideal gemstone for non-traditional engagement rings and jewels that are worn frequently. |
