Deep within the verdant valleys of Myanmar, under the watchful gaze of mist-shrouded hills, lies the birthplace of our exquisite 1.06 carat oval-shaped ruby. This gemstone, known for its vibrant "Pigeon’s Blood" hue, began its journey hundreds of thousands of years ago, formed under immense pressure and heat.
