Incredible 2.30ct collectors open color red Spinel

This rare unheated Tanzanian spinel displays a stunning pinkish red hue and is filled with glittering padparadscha pink flashing. The juxtoposition between the rich body color and the vibrant flashing really makes this gem pop, and it is accented by a superior luster that casts shades of black cherry adding depth to its color palette. This very clean example measures 8.9mm x 7.2mm x 4.5mm, and is untreated.
