Military Officer - October 2008 - (Page 51) In all my years as a GIA graduate jeweler, I have never seen a magnificently large ruby at such an outstanding price. The Oval Ruby Collection is without a doubt one of the best jewelry offerings I’ve seen in years. — JAMES T. FENT, Gemologist Huge Ruby Found on Bali—Is It Yours? Paradise is reflected in this magnificent 221/2 carat ruby…but the price is the most heavenly. O n the tropical island of Bali, the air is filled with ancient mystery and perpetual festivity. Who would have thought that our deep sea diving trip to this romantic paradise would lead us to a treasure of giant deep red rubies. This beautiful isle is so vivid and untouched it has become the spiritual inspiration for many an artist. Bali has gardens tripping down hillsides like giant steps, volcanoes soaring up through the clouds, long white sandy beaches, and friendly artisans who have a long history of masterful jewelry designs. We stumbled upon a cache of giant natural rubies at a local artisan’s workshop. He brought these exotic Burmese Rubies to Bali and now we have brought them home to you. Our necklace showcases a genuine 22½ carat facet cut ruby set in a frame of .925 sterling silver in the Balinese style. That’s right—22½ carats! and then wrapped with a twisted rope.
