GEMSTONE APPRAISAL / EVALUATION: This rare Neon Pink Mahenge Spinel, with its certified origin from Tanzania, boasts a premium handcrafted oval cut and excellent finish, contributing to its strong market appeal. Given its vibrant red-purple color, unheated status, and clarity rating of SI, this gemstone is appraised at an estimated fair market value of approximately USD 600 to USD 800, reflecting its unique characteristics and strong saturation.
