Origin: Tajikistan Provenance: Family tradition holds that the spinel originated from the Indian Nawab family, who claim to have acquired this Mughal stone when the Poet King Wajid Ali Shah (the last king of Awadh) was exiled by the British to Garden Reach, Matiabruz in 1856. The spinel is possibly from the Badakhshan mine, in the 'Pamir' region on the frontier between Afgahnistan and Tajikistan.
