Introducing the captivating Chatham Paraiba Blue Color Spinel, a new addition to the popular range of created gemstones from Chatham. This genuine spinel features a powerful, vibrant blue color in a medium-dark tone, enhanced by remarkably high brilliance. Its lively blue hue is much brighter and more vivid in person than the product photograph conveys, giving the gemstone a distinctive presence that stands out beautifully. The traditional round cut complements its intense color, creating a versatile and sophisticated gemstone for rings, pendants and other custom jewelry creations.
This gemstone is offered in Grade GEM, the highest grade available from Chatham. Expertly faceted to a high professional lapidary standard, it features a very good make, polish and symmetry for an attractive, well-crafted finish. Its Eye Clean Plus clarity rating further enhances its desirability, allowing the brilliant blue color to remain the focal point.
Chatham created gemstones are designed to match their mined counterparts in appearance and physical properties, including refractive index, optical characteristics and hardness. This means the gemstone offers the authentic characteristics expected of a genuine gemstone, rather than merely imitating its appearance.
