Carat Oval Cut
-
ruby price estimate, prices need today?
I would like an estimate on the price of a ruby with the indigenous law which is the weight times the square of price per carat = carat total price of the ruby is cut 18.38ct, oval, SI-1 quality, and has a typical heat treatment and it is Madagascar.
Unfortunately, there is no way to calculate the value of the gems carats descriptions alone. Each and every colored gemstone is valued the character and from there you get the price per carat. Detailed inspection is needed and no other way. The most important thing is the color, of course. There are many secondary nuances that affect the price. Treatment, clarity, cut quality, shape, brightness, symmetry, weight, proportions, color areas, all mind when setting the price of the stone. facets of the world's largest ruby without treatment is said to be 23.1ct. Assuming yours is not only hot and full of lead glass, it is penalty headlines, because there is not much high-quality ruby from Madagascar recently. Most of the things is largely included or lead glass filled even at sizes of 1 carat and up. So if you only heat treated, even be worth some serious money, assuming everything else is almost perfect.
