Spinel in general fascinates me, and lately, I've had a fascination for grey spinel in particular. And there's a little project somewhere down the road flickering in the back of my head that needs a 6-6.5mm stone...
I saw that there's a grey spinel on DB right now that's 6mm but it looks kind of darkish to me and I'm guessing would darken more in a setting. Would you say that's a fair assessment? I don't know nearly enough about colored stones.
I think the color I am looking for is something light and silvery maybe with hints of purple or blue. Would something lighter like that keep from blacking out too much in bright light? Does anyone have a suggestion where to look online for a stone that size in a not overly expensive price range?
