1.49 Ct. Star Ruby from Burma (Myanmar)

This exquisite translucent 1.49 carat oval star ruby embodies a lineage that stretches back to the great gem markets of antiquity, and its journey from the famed mines of Burma, Myanmar, to your collection is a story of geological time and human reverence. Cut en cabochon to reveal its living asterism, this pinkish red gem measures 7.13 x 5.31 x 3.60 mm, and presents a star that glides across its dome as light dances upon the surface. The clarity grade is very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which preserves the natural character and depth of the stone while allowing the luminous star to remain the focus. With a medium color intensity and an excellent polish, and with no enhancement of any kind, this ruby is a pure expression of nature, a classic specimen for connoisseurs who prize authenticity and provenance.

At The Natural Ruby Company we celebrate gems that connect wearers to a sense of continuity and legacy, and this star ruby is especially suited to that tradition. Its modest size and noble presence make it ideal for a signet ring that speaks of quiet authority, a pendant that becomes a family heirloom, or a bespoke setting that respects its history and allows the asterism to take center stage. The translucence and natural inclusions affirm its Burmese origin and its untreated status, offering collectors the rare satisfaction of holding a gem that has been altered only by time and the artisan who shaped it, rather than by modern interventions. For those who cherish pieces with stories, this oval cabochon star ruby invites contemplation, it rewards thoughtful design, and it promises to carry the lineage of its origin into the hands and lives of future generations.
