A simply huge, complex, dramatically shaped ruby that looks more like an organism than a mineral specimen! It is large, at 218 grams in mass, and complete all around. This is old material from the early 2000s era of production in Vietnam, not equalled since. Large rubies are rare from anywhere, and these sculptural pieces are unique to this time and place.
