THIS IS A GENUINE EARTH MINED ruby. Appraisal by an independent master valuer ( at time of this listing I am using Steven Knight GG, R.M.V., CJA-CAP) for a retail replacement value of $ 615 Canadian A copy of the appraisal unsigned and unsealed is included at no extra charge. . As I have already partially paid to have his appraisal, I can arrange a signed ,sealed copy of his appraisal to be sent to you for an additional $30, made out in your name, and converted to your currency if you are not in Canada. It will be sent separately to you by Mr Knight from his lab. Takes a few extra days.

NOTE: Supply and demand rules in true gem buying as in every other human investment.

Each earth mined gem is a unique work of art, unlike the lab produced stones that can be produced in unlimited quantities.
Some people will never understand why people buy an original work of art when they can buy a poster for next to nothing.
Earth mined gems are for those that do. Invest in quality.
