August Birthstone K10 Single Red Spinel Necklace ~Petela~ (K18 Available)

This is a simple, single-stone necklace featuring a striking red spinel. While spinels come in many colors, red and pink are particularly popular. Its vivid, slightly pinkish-red hue commands attention, shining elegantly at the neckline. Spinel is also the birthstone for August. The milgrain embellishment, which appears to cradle the small gem, translates to "a thousand grains" in Latin. Historically used as an auspicious decoration, it evokes concepts of eternity, abundance, fertility, and longevity. This jewelry series, named 'Petela,' combines 'mille grain'—meaning a continuous circle—with 'petit,' meaning small in French. It carries the wish: "May the sentiments imbued in this small gem continue forever." Choose your birthstone or favorite colored stone to wear daily as a personal talisman. It's a wonderful accent for office wear or can be layered with other necklaces for added flair on days out. Its simple and understated design also makes it a recommended series for gifts to loved ones. This necklace features a single red spinel on a delicate chain, offering a timeless design. Crafted entirely from yellow gold, it exudes a sense of luxury, yet its slender chain and petite pendant create a delicate, refined look, making it easy to wear even for those unaccustomed to jewelry. It is recommended as a first piece of fine jewelry, a gift, or a personal indulgence. The series' meaning, combined with the individual gemstone's symbolism, allows you to wear it as a cherished amulet. Enjoy various styling options, such as pairing it with Rasipia's natural stone charms or layering it with other necklaces. Red Spinel (August Birthstone) ■ Stone Keywords: Vitality, Victory, Passion Its Japanese name is Sen-sho-seki, with a Mohs hardness of 8. The name 'spinel' is derived from the Latin 'spina' (thorn) due to its sharp crystal formations, or perhaps from 'spark' for its brilliance. Historically, spinel was often mistaken for ruby due to its similar appearance and origins. For a long time, even experts found it difficult to distinguish, leading to gems like the red stone set in the British Crown Jewels, known as the "Black Prince's Ruby," being revealed as red spinel rather than ruby. Despite this long history of misidentification, red spinel possesses a charm that rivals that of ruby. While some gemstones undergo treatments like heating or impregnation to enhance their color and clarity, spinel is a gem that displays beautiful brilliance even in its natural state. Its appeal lies in enjoying the beauty created purely by nature. With very few inclusions that can cause damage and high hardness, it's an ideal item to wear daily as a protective talisman. *As natural stones are used, they may contain characteristic inclusions (cracks or inclusions) or have slight variations in shape.
