The Stone
Spinel's blue runs darker and cooler than most sapphires, closer to ink than sky. The pear cut draws that colour down to a fine point. A 0.10 carat diamond halo frames it, so the blue spinel ring looks larger than 8 × 5 mm.
For centuries, spinel was mistaken for ruby and sapphire. Several famous royal "rubies" later proved to be spinel. The GIA's spinel research project explains why collectors now prize it in its own right.
A Spinel Engagement Ring Alternative
A spinel engagement ring gives you colour without giving up a classic shape. The pear halo ring silhouette feels traditional, yet few people will own the same stone. It suits anniversaries and promise rings just as well.
An August Birthstone Ring
Spinel is an official August birthstone, which makes this an August birthstone ring with real meaning. Give it as an August birthstone ring for a birthday, or keep it for yourself. The slim 1.80 mm band stacks neatly beside wedding bands.
Sizing and Care
Order your blue spinel ring in US sizes 4 to 10, including half sizes. Each piece is handmade, so contact us if you are unsure of your size. Clean your blue spinel ring with warm water, mild soap and a soft brush. Store it apart from diamonds, which can scratch spinel.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is a blue spinel ring durable enough for daily wear?
Yes. Spinel rates 8 on the Mohs scale, harder than emerald, tourmaline or quartz. The pear halo ring setting also guards the stone's edges.
How big is the spinel?
The blue spinel ring centres a pear-cut spinel of 0.96 carats, measuring 8 × 5 mm. The diamond halo adds 0.10 carats.
Can I wear it as a spinel engagement ring?
Yes. A halo around a pear stone is a classic engagement style, and spinel is tough enough for everyday wear.
