Medium tone "pigeon blood" red. Moderately included. 100% natural "uncooked" Mogok cut oval ruby. Native cut. Eye clean. This is the typical type of stones you get from Myanmar with poor cutting, poor symmetry with intent to save the most weight. Notice the big indentation on the pavilion left purposely by the cutter. This type of stones can be set in antique jewelry reflecting the passage of time. The crudeness of the workmanship actually authenticates and reflects the era in which the jewelry piece was meant to represent. |
