A 0.48ct neon red-pink natural spinel from Mogok, Myanmar — untreated and eye-clean. Neon-tone spinel is the rarest and most commercially prized colour category the mine produces. This intense red-pink has an almost electric quality to the saturation — a colour that reads as vivid even at sub-0.5ct. Eye-clean clarity at 4.4 × 4.0mm makes it a strong candidate for earring or pendant settings.

What Is Neon Spinel?
Neon-tone spinel refers to stones where the colour saturation reaches an unusual intensity — the colour appears to glow rather than simply reflect light. In Mogok red-pink spinels, this quality is driven by the natural fluorescence and high refractive index of the mineral, producing a colour response unlike any other red or pink gemstone. True neon-quality material from Mogok is produced in small quantities annually and is sought after by collectors and jewellers working at the highest end of the colour gemstone market. Even at sub-1ct, these stones command attention.
