AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Raw ruby from Myanmar (Burma) – 118.80 ct – Untreated
In an auction, an exceptional and imposing specimen of natural rough ruby from the renowned Myanmar (formerly Burma) mines, the birthplace of the world's most precious rubies. This extraordinary crystal stands out for a significant carat weight of 118.80 carats (23.58 grams) and is presented in its rough state, preserving all its original charm and natural texture. As visible from backlit photographs, the stone shows a beautiful red-pink coloration and interesting translucency. An absolutely valuable detail for collectors and gemologists is the complete absence of treatments: the gem is 100% natural (unheated/untreated), a feature that greatly increases its rarity on the international market. Given the generous dimensions of 3.8 x 3 x 0.7 cm, the specimen represents a perfect display piece for high-level mineral collections or excellent material for investment and potential cutting for experienced cutters.
