7.99 Ct. Ruby from Burma (Myanmar)

The striking centerpiece of any fine jewelry ensemble, this extraordinary 7.99-carat red ruby, certified by the GemResearch Swisslab, offers a seamless blend of elegance and opulence. Contained within its remarkable oval shape, measuring 12.30 x 10.36 x 7.08 mm, is the captivating essence of a Burmese origin—an origin renowned for producing some of the world's most exquisite rubies. The gemstone's mixed brilliant cut maximizes its luster, bringing forth a vibrant play of light and color that gleams with unmatched vivid intensity. This intensity, complemented by an excellent polish, ensures the ruby emits an enchanting glow that is visible even from a distance. Despite being graded as slightly included upon eye-level evaluation, these natural inclusions do not detract from the gemstone's intrinsic beauty. Rather, they affirm its authenticity and value, making this ruby a prized asset for connoisseurs and collectors who appreciate nature's unique fingerprint.

Gemstone grading serves as both a science and an art, providing vital information about a stone’s quality and establishing its market value. This GRS-certified ruby promises a standard of quality that educated buyers find reassuring. Clarity, color, cut, and origin form the cornerstone of its appraisal, with this ruby boasting a vivid color intensity that sets it apart from its counterparts. Burmese rubies, like this one from Myanmar, are esteemed for their deep, rich red hues which are often referred to as "pigeon blood" reds. This allure elevates the ruby's desirability and underscores its prestige as a gemstone of choice. Approximately 90 percent of the world's finest rubies originate from Myanmar, a fact that enhances each stone's status and ensures its position as a wealth-preserving investment.

When considering custom pieces, this ruby pairs harmoniously with complementary gemstones, such as diamonds, sapphires, or emeralds. The brilliance of diamonds can accentuate the ruby’s fiery glow, providing a striking contrast that emphasizes its vibrant hue. Similarly, sapphires and emeralds offer complementary color palettes without detracting from the ruby's allure, instead harmonizing in a dance of regal elegance. In custom pieces, accent stones can be set along the band or arranged as a halo, enhancing the centerpiece and resulting in an exquisite composition that is both timeless and fashion-forward. These artful combinations transform the gemstone's inherent beauty into a statement of style and sophistication, appealing to those who desire a one-of-a-kind accessory.
