Looking for a Ruby

[shasavan7]

I am looking to purchase an unheated Burma ruby, and wonder if anyone can point me in the right direction? I''ve looked at Cherrypicked and National Gemstone (any feedback on National Gemstone would be really appreciated), but am hoping to enlarge the search. The ideal stone is around 1.75 to 2 carat, with (of course) great color.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi...welcome.

Well, you''ve already named the two places that first came to my mind. Richard Orbach at Cherrypicked is great. I''ve purchased a couple of gemstones from them and have been very happy.

I''ve never purchased a stone from Natl Gemstone (love the site), but I''ve talked to Robert Genis(?) before and he was wonderful, too.

You might check out www.rwwise.com. He has some gorgeous rubies, but right now, it seems, nothing in the size you want...you might give him a call...

Good luck, and keep us posted on your search!
