My best purchase for 2015 was the ruby I now show in my pendent-have been looking for a nice stone especially after the hosing I took from a gem dealer in Florida. This helps ease the sour these people gave me-I did go back & rub their noses in their mess, my revenge!:cool:

Beautiful ruby you have found. I am obssessed with ruby and hardly find a pretty stone like this. Could you share the specs of this beauty?

This is a stone I told the wife I had to try to get. Its Mozambique, some of the new find, is listed as VS class at the original auction, it is 3.02cts, 7x7x5mm in size, fluoresces as well as any burmese ruby & when seen under a scope one sees silk & rutile inclusions at the classic book labeled standard, just great to see. The color is red w/purply tones. The stone is GIA certified no treatment. I won an auction against 50 other bidders on ebay-a very lucky buy for me-stevie, thanku for asking...:cool:
