Condition Report*:
Colored Gems:
Type(s): Ruby
Shape(s): Pear
Count: 1 - 25
Avg Quality: Good
Overall Condition: Good
Condition Notes: This lot offers an exceptional opportunity to acquire not just one, but four legendary Burmese rubies for your collection or next jewelry creation. It is a well-established fact in the gemstone industry that rubies are often heated to improve their clarity and color. What is less commonly known, however, is that during these heating processes, additional substances (like flux) are introduced, leading to what the GIA refers to as "minor residues in cavities," as seen on the accompanying reports. This practice is broadly accepted and is mainly employed to mitigate surface flaws. The rubies show minor abrasions and slightly wayward symmetry in some cases, such is their likely hand faceted origins.
*Heritage Auctions strongly encourages in-person inspection of items by the bidder.
Statements by Heritage regarding the condition of objects are for guidance only and should not be relied upon as statements of fact,
