Pigeon Blood Ruby Gemstone

The most sought-after colour variation of the ruby gemstone is pigeon blood ruby. The Pigeon Blood Rubies significance is mainly linked to its hue, identical to blood from a freshly slain pigeon.

However, the pigeon red ruby price does attract high value in both the wholesale and auction markets. Pigeon red ruby jewellery value is established by carefully evaluating each stone due to its great rarity and worldwide demand. Pigeon blood red rubies value is influenced by colour intensity, clarity, cut, and carat weight.

The pigeon blood red ruby price per carat can vary significantly depending on the quality and weight.

Burma Ruby Gemstone

Burma ruby gemstones are one of the most famous and sought after gems in the world. As you probably guessed, they come from Burma, a country on mainland Southeast Asia formerly known as Myanmar. Burma ruby gemstones have been coveted since ancient times for their rich deep red colour. But Burmese ruby can be found with colours ranging from orange to brownish-red to purplish-black when mixed with other minerals such as iron or iron chromium oxide.

Burmese Ruby Price Guide

Burma ruby gemstones are one of the most valuable gemstone varieties. Burmese ruby is well-known for its rich red pigeon blood colour, exceptional clarity, and astrological significance. Old Burma rubies are very uncommon and extremely valuable. For example, a 5 carat Burmese ruby price can reach upwards of tens of thousands of dollars.

  • Colour: Rubies are most valuable when they are deep, brilliant red. Because there is no upper limit of Burmese ruby value, these highly unique gems can reach millions of dollars. For example, in 2015, a 25.59-carat Burmese ruby gemstone sold for $30.3 million in Geneva, Switzerland. Even a slight variation in hue from deep red to pink to reddish-brown may substantially reduce the Burmese ruby value.
  • Clarity: The Clarity of a Burma ruby gemstone does not come without inclusions (material trapped inside the gemstone during its formation). Since finding an eye-clean Burmese ruby is virtually impossible as they are non-existent within the worldwide Burmese ruby market today, inclusions in natural Burma rubies are entirely acceptable. Inclusions are seen as a character-defining feature of each individual Burma ruby gemstone sold. The Certified Diamond Network Burmese ruby price guide for our Burmese ruby range covers every carat determined by the location, volume, and kind of inclusions.
  • Cut: Rough ruby is neither easy to get by nor inexpensive. As a result, considerable care is taken to reduce gem waste when shaping or refining rubies. A faceted cut Burma ruby gemstone will be more costly than a round or cabochon ruby if the quality and size stay the same.
  • Weight in Carats: Rubies larger than a few carats are very uncommon geologically and significantly impact Burmese ruby price. As a result, the Burmese ruby value of every carat rises exponentially as the number of carats increases.
  • Treatment: For profiteering, rubies are treated to increase colour. Burmese ruby that has not been through heat treatment is more valuable than one that has been treated. Gem sellers should certify Burma rubies value, provenance, colour, and clarity to guarantee quality with an accompanying updated Burmese ruby price guide.

Burmese rubies are a type of gem that is typically used in jewellery. You can, of course, buy Burmese ruby online, but for the best shopping experience, please consider making a viewing appointment at the CertifiedDiamond Networkstudio so you can truly experience our outstanding selection of Burma ruby gemstones.

Natural Ruby Gemstone

Natural Ruby Gemstones are the most common type of stone. They have been around since long before we knew they were called natural rubies, and their history dates back to prehistoric times. Natural ruby is a precious stone known for its deep red colour that only appears in darker hues when exposed to heat or light exposure over time; it also shines with an orange-red hue if you look at it from certain angles. The ancient Romans liked natural ruby gemstones because they symbolised power, wisdom, happiness and honesty – all things one needs as an emperor!

Natural Ruby Price

Many quality factors determine the natural ruby price. The ruby gemstone value varies dramatically, even within the same ruby stone type. The cost of ruby stone price is influenced by its origin, colour, clarity, and rarity. To find out more about current natural red ruby gemstone prices please contact the Certified Diamond Network team.

  • Colour: The colour of natural ruby has a one-to-one relationship with its value. The most valuable hues are dark red or pigeon blood, which commands astronomical value. The price per carat of rubies for sale drops as we go from deep natural red ruby gemstone to bright red rubies, pink rubies, and purplish-red genuine rubies.
  • Treatment: Natural ruby gemstones are particularly susceptible to counterfeiting since they are so valuable. For wide margins, low-quality rubies are often dyed or heat altered. A natural ruby gemstone is typically more costly than a synthetic ruby or glass filled jewellery (depending on the provenance). A natural, untreated ruby purchased at a lower value should always be regarded with caution. Yet again, another reason why you should be speaking to the experts at Certified Diamond Network.
  • Clarity: The brightness and amount of inclusions observed in natural red ruby gemstones are used to determine clarity. Inclusions are nearly always visible or undetectable in a genuine jewellery gemstone. Natural rubies with hidden inclusions are very uncommon and thus incredibly costly. For such a natural, inclusion-free ruby gemstone, the value of every carat will be very high.
  • Weight in Carats: A perfect natural ruby gemstone weighing more than a couple of carats is uncommon, even more so than diamonds. As a result, when going from one-carat jewellery to a three- or four-carat, the value of every carat of the jewellery or Chuni stone rises dramatically.
  • Cut: The way each natural ruby gemstone is cut may add around 10% to 20% to thevalue of Ruby. The brilliance of faceted cut ruby gemstone has increased prices, yet there is considerable stone waste. Facetedjewellery is more expensive than a ruby cabochon for the same grade.
