0.34 ct Red Ruby - Marquise

This 0.34-carat ruby is cut as a marquise measuring 6.6 x 3.1 x 2.1 mm, with a red body color, sourced from Burma.

Ruby and sapphire are the same mineral, corundum; the trade gives the red its own name, and the best of it commands prices few gems can match. Burma is the historic benchmark for ruby; Mogok reds are what the trade grades against, from deposits narrow enough to keep the name expensive. It is heated, a standard and stable treatment that we disclose plainly, the way an honest seller should.

This is a center-stone-grade gemstone with a character of its own, chosen rather than settled for. Caveman Gems hand-selects every gemstone and films it in good light, to give you the truest look a screen can.
