➡️ Technical specifications

Velarion is an expressive 2.19 ct spinel in a precise octagonal step cut, whose effect is characterized less by brilliance and more by structure, depth, and nuances of color.

The color presents itself as a muted violet with a slightly reddish hue, shifting between cool restraint and subtle warmth depending on the light. In combination with the clear, architectural faceting, a calm, almost graphic overall impression with distinct depth is created.

The strictly constructed step cut emphasizes the stone's internal structure and gives it a reduced, elegant presence that deliberately distinguishes it from highly sparkling or oversaturated spinels.

Gemologically, it is an untreated spinel (no indications of heating), confirmed by Lotus Gemology, one of the leading laboratories for colored gemstones.

With its combination of size, clear geometry, and unusual color effect, Velarion is aimed at enthusiasts of nuanced, less conventional colored gemstones.
