Red Ruby 1.78 CT | Oval Cut Madagascar
A richly saturated 1.78 ct oval-cut ruby from Madagascar, this gem presents an opulent scarlet body color with a refined pinkish glow the chromium-rich hue collectors prize. The oval is well proportioned and crisply polished, yielding bright, even scintillation across the crown and a high vitreous luster.
