Ruby/Sapphire
Unknown Owner
This specimen literally hosts a "jewel" atop! The dominant crystal is a well terminated, glassy and gemmy, purpley to rose red crystal that looks faceted! It is lustrous and sharp all around. In fact, the very tip of the crystal is facet quality and probably worth quite a bit, if cut. 29.8 carats
