AMAZING RUBIES
HALF A MILLION DOLLAR RUBY PER CARAT !!
Ring studded with a 6.04cts. Ruby was sold for over $3.3 Million Dollars at a whooping $551,000 per carat (approx.)
The Ruby, a genuine Burmese Ruby accompanied by a certificate of Gubelin Gem Lab has broken the world record for the highest per carat price of any Ruby or precious gemstone (including diamonds, except fancy color diamonds) ever.
Since the auction, Prices of Natural Rubies have soared throughout the world.
The described ruby exhibits a very impressive size and weight of 25.596 ct, combined with a highly attractive colour and a fine purity. Its colour is further pronounced by its well-proportioned cutting style, resulting in vivid red hues due to multiple internal reflections. Due to complex geological formation processes rubies of such quality generally are found in small crystals and only very exceptionally in such a size as the present stone. [...]Its vivid but saturated colour, poetically referred to as pigeon blood red, is due to a combination of well-balanced trace elements in the stone, typical and characteristic for the finest rubies of Mogok. [...]A natural ruby from Burma of this size and colour is extremely rare.
Out-dazzling the most magnificent real-life blooms, this ruby and diamond floral ring, which features a cushion-shape ruby center and diamond petals, fetched $1.6 million at Sotheby’s Magnificent Jewels and Jadeite sale April 3 in Hong Kong, narrowly topping its $1.5 million high estimate. The ruby is of Burmese origin and has been twice certified “pigeon’s blood red” in color, the purest possible red in rubies. “The term pigeon’s blood red has been so overused recently, even when the red is just not there. This ruby has great clarity and brilliancy, and the mounting is beautiful. It’s very rare to see diamonds bordered with rubies like that.” And because of the embargo on Burmese rubies in the United States, “Burmese rubies are more in demand than ever"
When buying a very a rare fine ruby especially online, ask the dealer or store for a Certificate always.
