Red "Pidgeon Blood" Ruby 1.18 CT | Oval Cut Burma, Myanmar
A vivid heart of red lights up this 1.18 carat “Pidgeon Blood” ruby, its oval cut balanced to pull brightness across the crown and return a confident glow. Turn it in soft daylight and a ghosted geometry appears beneath the facets. Fine hexagonal growth zonings trace the crystal’s natural architecture, a rare visible fingerprint that only shows in exceptional material. The table remains open and bright, the junctions crisp, and the saturation holds steady from girdle to center. It reads velvety yet alive, the kind of poised intensity collectors look for when they want a ruby that commands attention without shouting.
Its story begins in Burma, Myanmar, where marble rich hills have yielded the world’s most storied rubies for centuries. Mines around Mogok and related belts produced gems whose red is touched by a whisper of blue that heightens the inner fire, the color long praised in royal jewels and coveted by modern connoisseurs. Access has always been difficult and production irregular, and fine stones over a carat are scarce in today’s market. Visible hexagonal zoning is a natural record of growth within corundum and appears only when the crystal forms with unusual clarity and orientation, adding provenance and character that make this Burmese ruby a rare and worthy centerpiece for Luminvault.
Fully certified for authenticity and quality, comes with a sensory experience that you won't forget. Don't miss your chance to own this stunning piece of earth wonder.
