A collection of vibrant pink to reddish-pink spinel crystals from Burma (Myanmar). Spinel is known for its wide range of colors and has been a favorite gemstone for centuries due to its beauty and durability. Burmese spinels, in particular, are prized for their intense, vivid colors, often referred to as "ruby spinel" because of their similarity in appearance to rubies, though they are distinct minerals.
These crystals exhibit typical spinel crystal habits, such as octahedral shapes with flat, glassy faces. Many of the pieces show sharp edges and good transparency
