Spinel, one of August's birthstones, is prized for its exceptional range of colors and durability. Bright red, pink and cobalt blue spinels are among the rarest and most valuable, while gray and violet spinels have grown in popularity for their distinctive beauty and affordability.
With a Mohs hardness of 8, spinel is durable enough for everyday wear, making it an excellent choice for rings and other frequently worn jewelry. Once mistaken for ruby and sapphire, spinel is now celebrated as a remarkable gemstone in its own right.
