Anyone own any green spinel?

[innerkitten]

I saw a greenish stone on the gem trader the other day. It was sold but sparked my interest. Anyone here own any? I''m wondering if it''s sparkly and pretty IRL.

Quite a few blue spinels will turn a tealish hue in natural light. It is really quite common with blue spinels.

Interesting CMW. I''ve never seen that before. You learn something new everyday right

Freke, I know I''m very interested now too.

BTW Freke, in the other post I did mean the averge of the whole family of stones. The pic of them all together was intriguing.

Yes, spinels come in all colours, including teal, but I haven''t seen a pure green spinel though.

I love the color...very unusual.

I saw that the other day, it reminded me of a greenish aqua. Very pretty.

I saw #16060 on this site the other day but it was sold within the hour of posting. Wonder if anyone here snatched it?
