A RUBY AND DIAMOND RING
Set with a cushion-shaped ruby weighing 3.01 carats, to the marquise-cut laurel leaf diamond shoulders, mounted in 18k white gold, ring size 6
Accompanied by report no. 1008024 dated 9 August 2010 from the Gübelin Gemmological Laboratory stating that the 3.01 carat ruby is of Burma (Myanmar) origin, with no indications of heating and this colour variety may also be called "pigeon's blood red" in the trade; also accompanied by a note stating that Burma has long been recognised as the locality associated with the most desirable rubies in the world. Within Burma (now Myanmar), the most famed region is the Mogok Valley, or Mogok Stone Tract, in the Katha district, North East of Mandalay. These Mogok-type rubies typically possess a red body colour and red UV-fluorescence. In addition, they may contain tiny amounts of light-scattering rutile silk and a swirl-like growth pattern. It is this combination of features which gives these rubies their characteristic appearance. The natural ruby of 3.01 carats described in the above mentioned Gübelin Gem Lab Report possesses the properties of Burmese rubies from the areas described above
