Stunning Mid Grey 2.05 Antique Pear cut untreated spinel. Nice unusual cut with no chips or other issues. It colour changes from a light/mid grey to a darker grey indoors (Photos 1 & 2). Outside in very strong sunlight this stone is something else it has really pretty light blue flashes which I have attempted to capture in the last photo (Photo 5). It is a mid grey/blue flash outside or in strong lighting and the cut is very similar to something from modern cutter Jean-Noel Soni from Top Notch Faceting because it has, I think, an intentional window down the centre you only see in very good lighting or in strong sunlight outdoors, and the cut of it also resembles a high end Antique diamond with a specific Antique cut I have seen at a high end Antique jeweller.

I had intended to make a Titanic style 3 stone out of it, but never got around to doing so. It would look great in a 3 stone, a bezel, with prongs, in a ring or pendant, set it pretty any way you want. The stone is a nice size of 9.06 x 6.46 x 5.00mms. Grey spinels this size with an unusual cut are generally approx. 3 to 4 times the price, Asking $175.00USD. $25.00 for registered trackable shipping.

Very pretty bargain dark grey 1.06 cut oval untreated spinel. Dimensions are 7.12 x 5.56 x 4.00mms. It colour changes from a dark grey, not quite black inside, to a dark titanium grey with the slightest hints of blue outside in the sun and under strong lighting (Photos 4).

Great/pretty and spready stone for the price asking $65USD. Generally these sell for two to three times what I am listing it for. $25.00 registered trackable shipping.
