Item Description
Ruby from the area around Mogok, Myanmar is one of the most storied gems in the world. Without questions, the vast majority of the finest Rubies in the world have come from this area. This gem has an attractive pinkish red color, and is certainly gem quality in clarity, despite some visible inclusions. It has a traditional "Round Step" cut. PLEASE NOTE: This stone was imported prior to the embargo implemented by the United States government, September 30, 2008. The embargo is now over, but it's important to know that ALL MINING in Mogok SHUT DOWN! The market is completely abandoned, and there is no activity anywhere as a result of the pandemic and political upheaval in the country. It is very difficult to find this material on market now, and the prices are going crazy as people are scrambling to get their hands on good Rubies from Mogok.
