A SUPERB PAIR OF RUBY AND DIAMOND EAR PENDANTS

The two rubies exhibit an impressive size and have been carefully selected for their attractive colour and fine purity, thus resulting in a beautifully matching pair of ruby ear-pendants. The small inclusions found by microscopic inspection are consistent with those rubies from the reputed mines in the Mogok valley and from Mong Hsu located southeast of Mogok in Burma(Myanmar). Their attractive and saturated colour, poetically also referred to as ‘pigeon blood red’ in the trade, is due to a combination of well-balanced trace elements, which are characteristic for the finest rubies from Burma. Assembling a pair of natural rubies from Burma of this size and quality is very rare and exceptional.

The gemstones exhibit a well-saturated colour combined with a very pleasant cutting style. Its vivid red, poetically referred to as “pigeon blood” is due to a combination of well-balanced trace elements in the stone, characteristic for rubies from Burma. Please note that two reports are more than 5 years old and might require an update US$10,000,000-18,000,000
