For centuries spinel was mistaken as ruby or sapphire, which is why it bears the name of “the great imposter”. It was not until 1783 that spinels were differentiated from rubies.
Beyond ruby red hues, it can also be shades of pink, orange, green, blue, violet, and purple. It is a durable gemstone, meaning it is a gorgeous option as an engagement ring - or a ring you wear every day.
