A deep, rich purple spinel from Mogok. Eye-clean with good proportions — 6.2 × 5.4mm face-up with a 3.9mm depth that gives solid brilliance. This tone sits between violet and deep plum, with a cool, saturated quality that works beautifully in white gold or platinum settings.

Why Deep Purple?
Purple spinel occupies a distinct position in the gemstone market — it offers the depth and prestige of purple sapphire without the near-universal heat treatment that affects that category. Natural untreated purple spinel from Mogok is uncommon, and a clean stone at over a carat is harder still to find. For an engagement ring, cocktail ring, or collector's piece, this tone delivers impact with genuine rarity behind it. No treatments. No enhancements.
