AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Splendid Raw Ruby from Myanmar (Burma) – 115.90 ct – Fully Natural (Unheated)
In the auction, an exceptional and fascinating specimen of natural rough ruby from the renowned Myanmar (Burma) mines, the land of origin historically the most appreciated worldwide for this precious gem. The crystal stands out for an extraordinary weight of 115.90 carats (equal to 23.18 grams) and presents a suggestive raw geometric shape with evident crystallographic growth facets. When placed on a light source (as shown in the images in the photo gallery), the ruby reveals its extraordinary and intense color saturation, lighting up with a vibrant and deep magenta/pink-red hue.
The most notable feature of this lot is its total authenticity: the gem is completely natural and has undergone no heating or filling treatments (No Heat / Unheated), a quality increasingly rare on the market that significantly increases its collectible value. A perfect piece both as an investment stone, to enrich a collection of exclusive minerals, or as rough material for cutting.
