AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Myanmar (Burma) Rough Ruby - 144.15 ct - Untreated (Natural)
On auction an extraordinary and imposing specimen of natural rough ruby from Myanmar (formerly Burma), the historically most renowned and prestigious origin worldwide for this variety of corundum.
The crystal presents a substantial weight of 144.15 carats (28.85 grams) and shows the characteristic hexagonal shape typical of the corundum crystal system. Placed on a light source, it reveals an extraordinary and vibrant deep red-violet fluorescence, enriched by fascinating natural inclusions and matrix veins that attest to its authenticity and geological formation.
The standout feature for collectors and investors is that the gem is completely natural and untreated (no thermal or filling treatments), a condition increasingly rare for pieces of this caliber.
Perfect as a piece for a high-end collection, museum display, or for gemological study.
