➡️ Technical specifications

Imperial Core is not a gemstone that seeks attention – it commands it.

This 2.75 ct untreated red spinel from Mogok (Myanmar) displays a deep, intensely saturated red that doesn't flicker but endures. The color is contained entirely within the core of the stone, unfolding a calm, powerful presence – precisely the quality for which classic Burmese spinels are valued.

The Antique Cushion Cut deliberately enhances this character. Large facets collect light within and release it in a controlled manner. Instead of a glittering surface effect, it creates depth, weight, and permanence. The stone does not appear bright, but dense – not loud, but authoritative.

Transparency and color are in perfect balance. Natural internal characteristics are discreet and do not impair clarity or impact. Imperial Core is a gemstone for collectors and designers who seek a historical appeal and uncompromising material quality.

The stone was recently professionally re-polished and then re-examined and certified by Lotus Gemology. Its condition, cut quality, and color rendition therefore meet a top quality standard.
A red spinel that endures – not glitters.
