Unheated Burmese are extremely rare and are native to the Magok region of Burma. They are considered a dream for gemstone connoisseurs. Vivid red rubies, often described 'pigeon's blood' red, are the most sough after and valuable, especially those that weight more than 1 carat. It is estimated that less than 1% of all gem quality rubies remain untreated. The five cabochon rubies in this very beautiful bracelet are well matched for colour and purity, and compliment the overall Art Deco design. This piece is a jewel that would compliment any connoisseur's jewellery collection.
