Item Description
The Rubies from Jagdalak are among some of the most well known and superbly crystallized Ruby specimens around. This specimen features a sharp, well formed, lustrous, purplish-pink color crystal on a contrasting white marble matrix. The crystal measures 1.0 cm across, and is accompanied by a few accessory crystals. The crystals are not at all opaque as the majority of these specimens tend to be. These specimens have truly risen in price on the market in recent years, and it seems that they are not being found as frequently as they once were, so do not miss out.
