Today it is almost impossible to find top quality larger stones over above around 10 mm diameter which is real clear from this stone's, natural ruby jewelry is made. The famed rubies of Myanmar have an internal structure which is distinctly unique often allowing separation from rubies of any other source. The major features are both euhedral “well-formed” and rounded crystal grains together with dense clouds of rutile silk.

Ruby Jewelry
Repeated twinning is relatively common as is hexagonal color zoning in a swirled pattern termed 'treacle'.
Crystalline solids of a number of types are characteristic in Burmese rubies. Typically are clusters of rounded and or euhedral grains of a light color or colorless concentrated particularly in the center of the crystal. The most often reported inclusions are calcite, spinel, corundum and zircon. Calcite is present as both rounded and angular rhombs and may be recognized by its cleavage and the polysynthetic twin lamellae which it often contains and spinel inclusions occur.

Pink Ruby means Sapphire / Corundum
The natural Myanmar (Burmese) ruby gemstone
is the source of almost every high-end quality red jewelry. They are made with this stones and it somehow looks as it gets depleted because the only volume source is still Burma.
It is a bit like jade where with the awakening of the red communist giant they loot whole countryside’s for a quick hit and run.
Pink already has a tendency to be defined as "pink sapphire" a very sought after gemstone of the corundum family which is the same as a ruby but only with slightly different shade after several celebrities were spotted with this rings in a diamond version.
Pink ruby colors >
After a frenzy started because a good pink diamond is almost similar to a sapphire.
However, the most coveted shade is pigeon blood red. Since nobody knows what this shade is any way it's ok just to think about common blood.
About the value of the mineral. But what is the value? The cost? There is a simple answer as much as the highest bidder is prepared to pay for it, the gem is literally priceless that’s one of the reasons why all bigger material is auctioned, either in Hong Kong or Geneva.

Especially women love ruby jewelry made from the red gems.
Some are of fine quality and have just the right color and clarity. Most shine with an extraordinary appeal and are of the most valuable ever. Today it is almost impossible to find top quality larger stones, means above around 10 mm diameter.
Almost all top quality red jewelry is made with ruby stones although there more attractive red gemstones such as spinel. It is a bit like jade, with the awakening of the red communist giant they loot whole countryside’s for a quick hit and run.
Which is different with diamonds where the price is set by a Russian / South African / Jewish cartel.
The rarity of the mineral sets it apart, although it derives its name from the Latin Rubeus, meaning 'red' this is definitely an Oriental stone, found mostly in the Far East such as Burma (Burmese Ruby)
For excellent ruby qualities around $ 30,000 or more are paid by carat.
But this is very rare today; the whole degrades more and more. A price of 4.6 million U.S. dollars was achieved at an auction in 1989 for a 32 carat piece. One carat is 0.2 grams; get your calculator to figure that out. Long time ago they also called them carbuncles.
Since one of the main price parameters of the red beauties is the clarity stones from Tanzania and Madagascar could be a good idea since they don't high-end clarity.
