Why Black Spinel Makes a Statement in Silver Settings
Black spinel forms deep within the Earth's crust, primarily in deposits across Sri Lanka, Myanmar, and Tanzania. The stone belongs to the oxide mineral group and develops its signature jet-black appearance through natural iron and chromium concentrations. This geological process creates a gem with high refractive index, which explains why black spinel reflects light with more intensity than similar dark stones. Sterling silver provides an ideal metal pairing for black spinel. The cool tone of .925 silver creates clear contrast against the stone's dark surface, allowing light reflection to show without competing warmth from yellow metals. Our rings range from simple solitaire settings to multi-stone arrangements, with band styles that include modern geometric shapes and traditional scrollwork. SilverRush Style has supplied natural gemstone jewelry since 2005. Each black spinel ring ships free within the United States and features stones we source from verified mineral suppliers. Browse the collection to find a ring weight and setting style that fits your preferences.Is black spinel a real gemstone?
Yes, black spinel is a natural mineral that forms in metamorphic and igneous rocks. It has been mined for centuries, though it was often misidentified as black tourmaline or onyx before modern gemological testing.
How hard is black spinel compared to other stones?
Black spinel rates 7.5 to 8 on the Mohs hardness scale. This places it harder than quartz and close to topaz, making it resistant to scratches during normal wear.
How should I clean a black spinel ring?
Warm water with mild dish soap works well. Use a soft brush to clean around the setting, rinse thoroughly, and dry with a lint-free cloth. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners and harsh chemicals.
