Huge! Highly expressive! 23.26ct pendant cut Tanzanian Ruby!

Now this, ladies and gentlemen, is a fantastic example of Tanzanian ruby. It has an opaque body that works extremely well with its low profile pendant cut. You have a gemstone measuring 22.2mm x 19.3mm and is only 4.5mm thick, but because of its opaque body you can have this specialized cut with no color loss. Which is important, as this ruby has a highly expressive color palette. The gorgeous colors of this ruby are in full display, trapped in intricate patterns of crystal growth that spans millions of years creating a multi-color hue of reds, violet reds, and pinks. These crosshatched and swirling colors are accented by just a hint of proustite, a mineral that develops naturally with select rubies and sapphires containing real silver. The included proustite in this ruby amplifies its violet undertones, and creates an almost lavender silver sheen that just whispers over each facet. And when you combine that with its premium polished luster, you get a metallic shimmering effect as the luster sparkles across its face. You don't want to miss this incredible ruby! Heated with minor residues.
