Ruby from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province, Pakistan

Proudly standing on a white marble matrix is a lustrous and translucent 10.4 cm red Ruby crystal. This is an engaging specimen with excellent color and a strong display value. The fluorescence of the ruby is outstanding. It is one of the finest in size and quality, with a spectacular display. I am very impressed by its size and quality, and I am confident that this is one of the greatest sizes of Ruby found in the history of this region. This Ruby exhibits a deep, vibrant red color with very sharp termination. The back side of the crystal is coated with muscovite and small quartz crystals, making the specimen even more interesting. It is completely fine all around, without any damage.
