Purple Spinel Collection

Purple spinel is one of the most visually striking gemstones you can buy. Deep grape, vivid violet, soft lavender, the range is remarkable. And unlike most colored gems, spinel is almost never treated, what you see is pure nature. We source our purple spinels from partner mines in Sri Lanka, Myanmar and Tanzania. Direct, no middlemen. Why spinel over purple sapphire? Often better brilliance, always untreated, and typically better value. The best purple spinels have a vivid, saturated color that doesn't go gray in low light. Stones over 2 carats are genuinely scarce. Browse our current selection below or get in touch for something specific.
