8.2x6.5mm (Myanmar)
*Color is the "Pigeon Blood Red" being highest class and it's
an oval facet-shaped Ruby. However, this one is a bad clarity because of
having many inclusions. Ruby (Specific gravity: 4.0) is heavy than Emerald
(Specific gravity: 2.7). Thus actually Ruby had seemed small size than
Emerald, when comparing them in same 2ct. So, somehow I feel I suffer a

Jadeite 18.5ct
15x20x6mm (Myanmar)

But, I'm not convinced about this problem completely. I think its judgment by professional may be also very difficult problem whether colored or not. --> If you shave it, it'll be exposed. (^^;)
