Description
In the world of fine gemstones, the beauty of contrast often creates the most inspiring jewellery. One such remarkable combination is this Ceylon Natural Spinel and Chrysoberyl Trio, sourced directly from Rakwana, Sri Lanka—one of the island’s most famous gem-bearing regions.
The centrepiece of this collection is a 1.25 carat Spinel, cut in a refined octagon step shape. Its pinkish-purple tone radiates vibrancy, with excellent brilliance and high clarity (VS). Spinel has long been admired for its durability and wide colour spectrum, and pink-to-purple hues remain among the most desirable, reminiscent of the famed “Mehenge” shades.
Accompanying the Spinel are two Chrysoberyl trilliants, weighing 0.50 and 0.52 carats each. Their fresh green brilliance provides a natural contrast to the Spinel, enhancing both colour and fire. Chrysoberyl, known for its sharp lustre and hardness, is a gem highly valued in jewellery for its resilience and bright sparkle.
Together, this trio creates a balanced harmony—pinkish purple paired with green evokes both warmth and freshness, ideal for vibrant modern jewellery design. Each stone is unheated, natural, and high-quality, offering authenticity that collectors and designers treasure.
For jewellers, this set opens the door to endless creativity: a dazzling three-stone ring, a unique pendant design, or even set in a custom arrangement highlighting both colour and brilliance. Beyond design potential, the rarity of Spinel-Chrysoberyl pairings makes this trio a standout collection piece.
Sri Lanka, often called the “Gem Island,” continues to gift the world such rare treasures. At City of Gem, every piece begins at the mine, carefully selected, cut, and polished to preserve its brilliance. This trio is not just a collection of stones—it is a story of colour harmony, natural beauty, and timeless elegance, ready to be transformed into fine jewellery.
