FAQs

1. What makes Afghan ruby and corundum an attractive choice for collectors?

Gemstone collectors value this parcel for its naturally formed trigonal crystal structures and pink to purplish-pink color range. The stones are completely untreated and genuine, sourced from Afghanistan’s historically rich ruby regions. Their natural aesthetic, and mineralogical purity make the parcel a meaningful addition to any collection.


2. Can lapidary artists use these stones for faceting or cabochon cutting?

Yes. The parcel includes a mix of stones from under 1 carat up to 5 carats, making it ideal for small faceted stones, cabochons, carving, and lapidary practice. The clarity variation—including transparent, semi-transparent, and SI pieces—offers multiple opportunities for cutting beautiful gems or experimenting with different lapidary techniques.


3. How can jewelry designers benefit from this type of ruby rough?

Designers can use the rough in raw gemstone jewelry, wire-wrapped designs, artisan pendants, and rustic rings. Transparent pieces can be cut into small faceted gems, while translucent and included stones are excellent for raw, organic-style jewelry. The natural pink tones make the material versatile for high-end, boho, or handcrafted jewelry lines.
