IT IS COMMON PRACTICE IN THE RUBY INDUSTRY TO HEAT TREAT AND GLASS FILL FRACTURE LINES. WE TREAT OUR RUBIES BUT WE DO NOT HEAVILY GLASS FILL OUR RUBIES, ONLY RUBIES WITH FRACTURE LINES DO WE GLASS TREATMENT. THE GEM OF LOVE. A VARIETY OF MINING AREAS PRODUCE A GREAT DIVERSITY OF RED SHADES. THE MONGOK VALLEY IN BURMA IS FAMOUS FOR ITS 'PIGEON BLOOD' OR PINK RED COLOUR. FROM THAILAND AND CAMBODIA IS A STRONG DARK RED. ACCORDING TO ANCIENT LORE, MANY BELIEVE THAT MYSTICAL POWERS LIE WITHIN THIS INTENSELY COLOURED RED GEM. IT INTENSIFIES EMOTIONS OF LOVE, PASSION, COURAGE AND CONFIDENCE. A RUBY ENGAGEMENT RING IS GIVEN TO EXPRESS PASSION AND A PROMISE OF THE HEART. FURTHERMORE THE WEARING OF A RUBY ASSURES A LIFE LIVED IN PEACE. THE RICHNESS OF THE COLOUR, THE BRILLIANCE OF THE REFLECTED LIGHT AND THE CLARITY OF THE GEM DETERMINE THE QUALITY OF A RUBY.

 

PICTURES ARE NOT ENHANCED

We DO NOT enhance our pictures, pictures are taken under normal light and

our pictures expose more scratches and blemishes in these pictures than in our hand.

If we can see no blemishes from a foot away in our hand we term the Ruby as

EYE CLEAN .

Many sites show rubies clean and vvs which is really very hard to find. Mining these

rubies as you are aware most are glass filled if vvs and cheap, so please be informed.

Wearability is important and we consider fracture filled rubies as strong and wearable

But you should avoid heavily glass filled cheap rubies as wearability and strength is effected.

We understand rubies and prefer to sell genuine and inform buyers that Rubies should be

better in hand than in our pictures. Please consider our Rubies

 

BEAUTIFUL HAND PICKED, HIGH GRADED RUBY STONE. THIS GEM STONE IS NOW IN

AUSTRALIA AND WILL BE SHIPPED FROM THERE SO PLEASE BE PATIENT FOR YOUR

DELIVERY.

    I realize how important positive feedback is. I like the stone, just as was described, but it took 2 weeks to ship from the date of purchase! Because of this delay, I missed my deadline. Recd Dec.23rd, Won on Nov.24th! Sorry, neutral rating only!

Why are users outbidding themselves?

When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a user is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on that users behalf, incrementally increasing the bid to maintain their position as the highest bidder, up to the specified maximum.

When there is an icon indicating 'Auto Bid,' it means our system is actively placing bids for the user based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if users are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the users maximum limit.

Audit

The Synthetic Gemstone Sheriff program allows our members to request an audit on any product, which is completed by an independent Gemstone Sheriff who assesses the accuracy of the item description and pictures.
