Barion Shield Cut Spinel by Daniel Stair

Purple Spinel, 1.27 ct Faceted from Tanzania

The small rope-like inclusion in the bottom of this stone is in just the perfect spot to reflect off of a number of facets. Some stones are cut this way intentially, but in this case it was an accident. Color: Medium Purple, Cut: Barion Shield, Weight: 1.27, Dimensions: 6 x 7.4 mm.
