1. Are Tajikistan rubies considered good quality compared to Burmese or African rubies?
Answer: Rough ruby stones from Tajikistan are popular for their cool red pigeon-blood to purplish-red hues, often with strong saturation. Though, historically Burmese rubies are the most valuable, Tajik rubies have taken a space of recognition for their fine color and untreated. Unheated natural rough rubies Tajik are still desire-able. They may have more inclusions than Burmese rough rubies stones, but still Tajik rubies remain highly desirable for lapidary work and jewelry due to their natural beauty and rarity.
2. What can I expect when cutting this 56-carat rough ruby parcel—are the stones suitable for faceting or only cabbing?
Answer: This parcel includes mixed sizes (from under 1 ct to 10 ct) with clarity ranging from translucent to semi-transparent. The cleaner pieces are suitable for faceting into small gems, while included or translucent stones are ideal for cabochons and carving. Because they are untreated and natural, even included stones can be attractive finished gems, making this parcel suitable for both cutters and collectors.
