Colourless spinel is exceptionally rare. Unlike colourless diamonds or sapphires, which are produced in commercial volumes, a clean, well-proportioned colourless spinel is a genuine collector's find. This 1.03ct stone from Mogok is eye-clean, with no colour, no inclusions visible to the naked eye, and no treatment of any kind.

Why Colourless Spinel?
Colourless spinel contains no trace elements — it is pure natural spinel in its most unaltered mineral state. Stones of this clarity and size are scarce even among Mogok material, and this quality is rarely seen. For jewellery designers seeking a clean, bright stone that avoids the mainstream, or for collectors who appreciate mineralogical rarity, colourless spinel is a compelling and under-appreciated choice.
