Holy cow! It’s a 19.38ct silver pinkish red striped Ruby! And its UNTREATED!
This piece has phenomenal color! The soft red hue of this ruby is tempered by a pink undertone that really lightens its color palette. But then nature filled it with a generous helping of proustite, a mineral that develops with select rubies and sapphires that contains real silver, giving it silvery pink striations that produce a metallic shine and constant color shifts. And this amazing color shifting pattern covers the whole top! And on top of that, it has a semi-opaque body that diffuses the light, adding a slight glowing effect in bright lighting. This thing just doesn't stop! You've got to see this ruby first hand, it will blow you away. It is well faceted with a modified cushion cut, and it is covered with a glistening superior luster that adds to its display as it twinkles across every facet. This collectors piece has substantial size measuring 15.7mm x 15.1mm x 9.8mm, and has a Mohs hardness rating of 9 out of 10 making it perfect for setting and daily wear. And you should set it, so that your great grandkids can fight over who gets to wear it. It is that awesome. This exotic example was sourced from Winza, Tanzania, and is all natural with no treatments. Just pure ruby.
