Item Description

The Rubies from Pakistan 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 marble matrix. The crystal measures 1.8 cm across, and fluoresces brilliantly under SW UV light. 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. Ex Herb Obodda, and priced at $1400 in his inventory, and I KNOW it's worth more today.
