Vibrant Lab-Grown Aqua Blue Spinel – Chatham’s Ethical Gems

Lab-Grown Aqua Blue Spinel

The gem of friendship.

In 2012, Chatham introduced the aqua colored variety of spinel, to our lab grown color menu. The goal was to capture the beauty and soothing attributes of aquamarine - a highly sought after gemstone. Since aquamarine beryl follows a complex crystal structure, it is more efficient to grow a spinel in the striking aqua blue that makes this gem so desirable.
