Ruby 3 Carat Solitaire Certified Unheated Burmese Origin, French, Estate
About the Item
A spectacular -and exceedingly rare- certified natural and unheated Burmese ruby weighing just over three carats shines like a beacon from within the four-prong French mounting. Rubies over one carat are rare, and Burmese rubies are the standard against which all others are judged. The magnificent no-heat Burma ruby measures 9.8mm x 8.8mm and weighs 3.02 carats.
The platinum band is set with eighteen small, bright, and white diamonds weighing approximately .20 carats. There's a French purity mark on the rear, but the band bears no maker's mark.
The GIA classifies rubies as a Type II gemstone, meaning they are expected to contain inclusions. Many are so heavily included that they are opaque. Rubies, like blue sapphires, can also be so saturated -too saturated- that they appear dark. But this stone is bright and lively, a thrilling pinkish-red.
The inclusions within this ruby happen to be fascinating and -depending on your taste- uniquely beautiful. It's a prize of a stone. The stone is bright and displays the gorgeous natural crystal structure of the ruby gemstone. I'm a gemologist, so I find the interior of this ruby fascinating and beautiful and unique. I've included an ultra-macro image of the stone, backlit. It's a gorgeous stone. Keep in mind that the dramatic interior of the stone is hugely magnified in the image; on the finger it's just a beautiful ruby, as you can see in the video. I recognise that not everyone is as delighted by the internal crystal structure of gemstones as I am (I'm a gemologist, after all), so I have priced this ring accordingly. It presents a tremendous to acquire an enormous natural and un-heated Burmese ruby ring for an exceedingly reasonable price.
The ring is currently a size 6 ½ and could be resized by your local jeweler. It ships with a certificate from GCS London stating that the 3.02-carat cushion-cut ruby is from Burma (Myanmar) and shows no indications of heating.

- Sapphire 4.04 Carat AGL Certified No-Heat Madagascar Origin, Eye-Clean, MountedLocated in Southbury, CTA cushion-shaped, mixed-cut, eye-clean 4.04 unheated royal blue sapphire from Madagascar is the discussion here. The included AGL "Prestige Gemstone Report" concludes that the sapphire has an origin of Madagascar, no "clarity enhancement," and no indications of heating. For many, this Royal blue is the ideal tone for a sapphire. It is the same regal blue seen on the finger of the Princess of Wales. Unheated sapphires with an interior as clean as this stone, and with such a fine, even tone are exceedingly rare and highly valuable.
