| GEMSTONE APPRAISAL / EVALUATION: | This purplish red ruby features a strong saturation and good clarity, highlighting its appeal as a collectible stone. With its certified origins from Madagascar and impeccable quality as an unheated designer cushion cut, such gemstones typically have a fair market value appraised around USD 1,200 to USD 1,800. Regarding investment potential, while the carat size is modest at 1 carat, the color, shape, and origin enhance its desirability. Nevertheless, it may not yield significant returns as a long-term investment due to market fluctuations and availability. Instead, acquiring this ruby for personal enjoyment or as part of a fine jewelry collection may offer more value; set in an elegant piece, it could serve beautifully for special occasions or as a family heirloom. |
