This 1.78ct stone from Mogok is eye-clean with generous proportions at 7.0 × 6.7mm face-up, making it a substantial and distinctive gemstone for a bespoke jewellery commission or collector's acquisition.

Why Champagne?
Champagne and pale golden tones in natural spinel are genuinely uncommon — far rarer than red or pink, and less well-known even among experienced gemstone buyers. The colour has a quiet luxury to it: warm without being brown, pale without being colourless. In gold settings, particularly yellow or rose gold, this tone is exceptional. For a jeweller, designer, or collector who appreciates rarity beyond the conventional colour categories, this is a serious stone. Entirely natural. No treatments of any kind.
