➡️ Technical specifications

Silver Horizon works differently from color-dominated gemstones. The visual focus is not on intense color, but on the way light moves across the facets.

The grey to silvery tone appears understated at first, but develops surprising dynamism when moved. Bright reflections and darker zones alternate, creating an almost metallic effect that changes with every turn.

At 1.82 carats, the stone has enough volume to clearly display this light structure without losing clarity. The modified cushion cut supports precisely this behavior by channeling, rather than scattering, reflections.

In contrast to classic spinels with strong color saturation, the effect here arises from contrast and surface. This makes the stone appear calmer, but at the same time more technically precise.

Silver Horizon is not a stone for maximum visual loudness. Its strength lies in control and structure – a reduced, almost minimalist expression of material.

GRA (Global Gemological Research Association) ist ein international tätiges Edelsteinlabor, das seit den frühen 2000er‑Jahren hochwertige Identifikations‑ und Bewertungsservices anbietet. Die Organisation betreibt moderne Labore in wichtigen globalen Schmuckzentren und gilt durch ihre strengen Prüfabläufe und konsistenten Standards als verlässlicher Partner im internationalen Edelsteinhandel.


GRA ist als Tier‑2‑Labor einzuordnen: anerkannt, weit verbreitet und für viele Handelssteine absolut solide, auch wenn im High‑End‑Segment häufig Tier‑1‑Institute wie GIA oder SSEF bevorzugt werden. Die Labore spezialisieren sich auf die Analyse verschiedenster Edelsteine – von Farbsteinen wie Rubinen, Saphiren und Smaragden bis hin zu Diamanten – und zeichnen sich durch moderne Technik und international erprobte Methodik aus.
Durch seine globale Reichweite und umfangreiche Expertise ist GRA ein relevanter Bestandteil des heutigen Gemmologiemarkts.
