The ruby stone I received was very beautiful and I liked it. I did my tests like hardness test, reflection index, clarity test, density test .. it passed all testes., except some tiny inclusion not seen by bare eye. I am still looking for high quality natural red ruby gemstone but with the biggest weight you may have, to practice ultra sonic test on it.
