Spinel 1.57 ct | Cushion | Greyish Purple | Elahera, Sri Lanka

This 1.57 ct Spinel from Elahera, Sri Lanka, combines a timeless cushion cut with an attractive greyish purple color. Sri Lanka is one of the world’s most respected sources for fine spinel, and Elahera is known for producing gemstones with lively brilliance and beautiful natural color nuances. This stone offers a refined balance of elegance, individuality, and versatility.

The color shows a distinctive greyish purple appearance with a calm and sophisticated character. The soft grey modifier tempers the purple base and gives the gemstone a more understated, elegant look than a brighter or more saturated purple would show. This creates a refined and slightly unusual color personality that is especially appealing for buyers who appreciate subtle tones with individual charm.

Its cushion cut gives the gemstone a classic outline with softly rounded corners, combining timeless appeal with a balanced face-up appearance. This shape works beautifully in both traditional and contemporary jewelry styles and gives the stone a graceful, well-proportioned look. A cushion-cut spinel of this size is especially well suited for solitaire rings, refined pendants, halo designs, and bespoke fine jewelry.

At 1.57 ct, this spinel has an attractive size for a center stone. It is large enough to show both its color and shape clearly, while remaining highly wearable for fine jewelry. Set in white gold or platinum, the greyish purple tone appears crisp and contemporary; in rose or yellow gold, it takes on a warmer and more expressive contrast.

A fine greyish purple Spinel from Elahera with elegant cushion proportions, distinctive natural color, and versatile size—well suited for bespoke jewelry and carefully selected gemstone collections.
