Superior Quality Burmese sapphires are as rare, if not rarer, than rubies found in the same region. Sapphires are found in the sands deposited by the river and they are extracted by filtering the sand by a method called panning.

The gem trade was stunned in the late 1980s by the discovery of rubies in Vietnam. Star rubies from Vietnam have excellent fine 6-ray stars which are quite distinct and easily visible. The color ranges from pink to dark pink.

Alexandrite: The Magical Gemstone
1 / 0
http://www.starruby.in/store/info/alexandrite
Alexandrite is a variety of Chrysoberyl which displays a color change (alexandrite effect) dependent upon light, along with strong pleochroism. This extremely rare gemstone of fairly recent history owes its name to the fact that it was first discovered in the Urals in 1830, on the day of Prince Alexander of Russia’s coming of age.

Beacause among all sapphire-producing localities around the world, Ceylon (Sri Lanka) is the most eminent. Ceylon has been especially famous for producing beautiful large-sized star sapphires. The largest asteriated corundums showing excellent stars owe their origin to Ceylon.

Is Padparadscha Ruby Or Sapphire?
1 / 0
http://www.starruby.in/store/info/padparadscha
Ideally a Ruby is red colored and any other colored corundum is called a Sapphire. Although some ancient references (Garuda Purana of Hindus) put padparadscha as a variety of ruby, the topic is highly debatable.

Pink sapphire may range from a very delicate, pleasing, lively pink, without any overtones, to pink with a slight violet tinge; but all gradations of color are possible, from those tending toward ruby to those tending toward violet sapphire

Rare Trapiche Sapphire/ruby…. Common pattern in emeralds
1 / 0
http://www.starruby.in/store/info/trapiche-sapphire
While trapiche patterns are common in emeralds, they are less common in corundum, and are typically restricted to ruby. Trapiche Sapphires are considerably rarer. Trapiche sapphires, like trapiche rubies and emeralds, consist of six sapphire sections that are delineated and separated by “arms” resulting in a fixed six-rayed “star”.
