WHAT IS BLUE SPINEL?

Blue spinel is a captivating gemstone known for its exquisite blue hues, reminiscent of the serene depths of the ocean. Belonging to the spinel family, this gem has long captivated the hearts of gemstone enthusiasts and collectors alike. Revered for its brilliant color, impressive durability, and unique brilliance, blue spinel has cemented its place as a sought-after gemstone in the world of jewelry.

Unlike its more commonly recognized cousin, the ruby, which is also part of the spinel family, blue spinel's vibrant shades have often been compared to sapphires. Blue spinel has been cherished throughout various cultures and it was often mistaken for sapphire due to its close resemblance. One of the most famous spinel gems in history is the Black Prince's Ruby, set in the British Imperial State Crown, which is, in fact, a large red spinel.

Found in various parts of the world, including Myanmar, Sri Lanka, Tanzania, and Vietnam, blue spinel has a remarkable geological origin. It forms in the earth's crust through a combination of elements such as aluminum, oxygen, and magnesium. The presence of trace elements contributes to the gem's distinct blue coloration.

Aside from its allure and beauty, blue spinel is also valued for its exceptional durability. Ranking 8 on the Mohs scale of hardness, it is a gemstone well-suited for everyday wear in various types of jewelry, from rings to necklaces and earrings. Jewelers love working with blue spinel due to its excellent toughness, allowing them to create intricate and stunning designs that highlight the gem's brilliance and color.

The popularity of blue spinel in modern times has grown steadily, as more people become aware of its existence and extraordinary attributes. It has found its way into both high-end and artisanal jewelry pieces, appealing to those who seek a unique gemstone alternative to more traditional options.

In conclusion, blue spinel is a mesmerizing gemstone that combines breathtaking beauty, durability, and rarity. Its rich history, coupled with its vibrant blue color and impressive sparkle, makes it a treasure cherished by those who appreciate the allure of exceptional gemstones. Whether set in a regal ring, a graceful necklace, or an elegant pair of earrings, blue spinel is sure to continue captivating hearts and minds for generations to come.

Can I get these earrings with Leverbacks?

Yes, it's possible to convert these earrings to leverbacks. After adding them to your shopping bag, you’ll see an option in the cart to upgrade to leverbacks for an additional $25.

When should I upgrade to leverbacks

You should consider upgrading to leverbacks if you want added security. Leverbacks are ideal if you have an active lifestyle, often wear your earrings for long periods, or are worried about loosing an earring. They snap closed securely and are less likely to fall out compared to traditional hooks.

Why use silicone Bullet Clutches on a Hook Earring?

Silicone bullet clutches are an excellent choice for hook earrings because they add extra security without compromising comfort or style. Hook earrings can easily slip out during wear, especially with movement or when removing clothing. Sliding a silicone bullet clutch onto the back of the hook keeps the earring securely in place, helping to prevent accidental loss. They’re also soft, lightweight, and nearly invisible when worn.
