Item Description
An aesthetic ruby on marble miniature from the Herb Obodda dealer stock. A sharp, 0.8 x 0.7 x 0.6 cm, lustrous, beautiful pigeons blood-red ruby crystal is aesthetically set on the wedge of marble matrix and beautifully accented with a smaller, 0.5 cm ruby. A pearlescent, golden-orange pholopite book nearby and scattered individual crystals are a very nice compliment. A classic, excellent and uncommon ruby combination miniature from Jegdalek. Valued by Herb at $500, five or more years ago before the flow of these stopped.
