Cool specimen of Corundum var. Ruby on a white Marble base from Jegdalek ruby deposit, Afghanistan. The crystal is 8mm and it has a rich fuchsia color. It is well shaped. The luster is good. It is slightly translucent and it displays some gemminess. The white base gives a superb contrast.  In very good condition – some natural imperfections. On acrylic base.

Splendid Ruby!
