(^^) Feel free to comment! (^^) ☆ This is a 2-carat-plus Burmese ruby from days gone by. It has been origin-identified by a GIA lab. ☆ "Burmese rubies from back then were incredibly expensive." My mother and others who knew the times always say this. ☆ Actually, old Burmese rubies have a slightly different red hue than current ones. They have a coexistence of a soft red and a vibrant purplish-red. Moreover, they have quite strong fluorescence, so they turn fiery red with changes in light source. It's no exaggeration to say that this red is almost depleted, and the current Burmese ruby's red has settled down. ☆ I've attached a passage from a gemological book from the time (published in 1999): "The characteristic of Burmese rubies is their 'soft color.' This softness is of the same quality as Kashmir sapphires and Colombian emeralds. They have high transparency and are slightly purplish or pinkish, resulting in a bright color. This is because Burmese rubies have a strong property of emitting light (fluorescence) in response to ultraviolet light. This strong fluorescence produces a soft color that is not found in other origins." ☆ The "Color" section of the appraisal report is "Purplish Red." It perfectly matches the description in the gemological book. ☆ In fact, many antique jewelry pieces from the late 19th century used Burmese rubies of this color. ☆ Furthermore, this one is GIA-Burma-Minor Residues. ☆ I don't think it's inexpensive. But you will definitely be moved. ☆ Please, inherit it! (^^) You can watch the video on ◯◯◯ta.
