We are thrilled to offer this dazzling ruby, part of a collection acquired from an accomplished, retired Kiwi field gemologist. His career was dedicated to volunteering at gem mining sites across Asia and Africa, where he had the unique opportunity to buy gem rough as it was discovered. Over many years, he built a sensational gem collection, each piece hand-selected with a deep knowledge of precious gemstones and what lends to their value and overall beauty. He kept his private collection under lock and key for many years but recently gave The Sapphire Merchant the unprecedented and exciting opportunity to acquire some of his most remarkable pieces. This is a unique opportunity that should not be missed. Whether you are creating the ultimate gift of self-love or a proclamation of devotion, such as an engagement ring, we entwine your nuanced needs with our creativity. Let this rare ruby honour your story by allowing us the privilege of hand-crafting it into a bespoke, artisan jewellery piece, marking a moment of significance in your life for now and for generations to come.
