for stress reduction

Black Spinel

Black spinel has an inky, polished presence that catches light at the edges. Hand-wrapped in our Nashville studio, it brings a crisp, graphic contrast to a stack or a single strand.

Color: Inky black to charcoal, with a polished gleam that catches the light.
Family: A mineral in its own right, distinct from black tourmaline despite their similar dark appearance.
Wear: 8 on the Mohs scale with good toughness; a durable choice that still deserves care around hard knocks.
A little history: For centuries, red spinel was mistaken for ruby; the Black Prince's ruby in England's crown is actually spinel.
