3.04 Ct. Star Ruby from Burma (Myanmar)

This remarkable semi transparent GIA certified red star ruby weighs 3.04 carats, with an elegant oval outline measuring 9.27 by 6.89 by 4.74 millimeters. Cut as a double cabochon to maximize the classic six ray asterism, the stone displays a clean, centered star when viewed under direct light, an effect emphasized by the symmetrical domes on both faces. The gem is eye clean when examined at standard viewing distance, which allows the vivid red body color to dominate without visible inclusions interfering with the star. The polish is excellent, giving smooth reflective surfaces and a pleasing luster that enhances the semi transparent character, and the GIA report confirms no enhancement. Origin is Burma Myanmar, a source renowned for some of the world most desirable rubies, and the lab color classification is Red, a testament to the depth and saturation of tone and hue in this example.

At The Natural Ruby Company we value provenance and untreated rarity, and this GIA certified Burmese star ruby represents a collector quality piece that also lends itself beautifully to fine jewelry. Its size and form suit a striking ring centerpiece, an elegant pendant, or a bespoke brooch, and the double cabochon cut offers a dramatic star effect especially when set under a protective bezel or low profile mount to preserve the domes. For care, avoid harsh chemicals and prolonged exposure to extreme heat, clean gently with mild soap and a soft brush, and store separately to prevent abrasion. The GIA certificate accompanies the gem to verify weight, measurements, origin and the absence of enhancements, and we can provide additional photographs, a short video demonstrating the star, and assistance with custom design, insured shipping, and independent appraisal upon request. If you are seeking a rare untreated Burmese star ruby with superb polish and a vivid red presence, this 3.04 carat oval is an exceptional choice, and our team at The Natural Ruby Company is ready to answer questions and help you secure it.
