- The color of ruby- the outstanding red color- is the first sign of its purity. A ruby is red and nothing less than that- its not purple, not pink and not even a “sort of red color.”
- An untreated ruby is very difficult to find, if you get one you are lucky in that matter. However, all rubies, including natural ones, are given at least heat treatment for improving clarity and transparency. Though heat treated rubies are less costlier than untreated natural ones, they are not fake.
- Although heat treatment do not affect the quality of ruby but other treatments can such as glass filling or lead filling. Glass filling improves clarity of rubies and lead filling improves both clarity and color but then lead is injurious to health and glass is nothing compared to ruby.
- When buying ruby gemstone, you must also be cautious about not buying imitation rubies. Other than natural rubies, the gemstone dealer can even offer you synthetic or laboratory created rubies. Synthetic rubies, not as costlier as natural rubies, are still acceptable because their composition is similar to the natural ones but imitations are fake gemstones. To know the exact difference between synthetic and imitation rubies as well as other criteria to check while shopping for the gemstone, read Buying Guide for Ruby Gemstone

How to Know Emerald Value?
Monday, September 20, 2010
Posted by Deepa
- Examine the color – it is the most important attribute of this precious stone. It should be a bright intense green which is not too dark and at the same time not too pale. Not only color, check the tone also. Tone is the depth of color- how dark or light a color appears. It can range from colorless to black. Emerald tone is referred to as "light," "medium-light," "medium," "medium-dark," and "deep green". Always select the medium dark green tone because a dark green tone would no let the stone get brilliance.
- Look at the size of the stone- more carats mean more weight and larger size and large size in turn means more value. As larger emeralds are found rarely, they are considered best quality stones- the one with 1-carat weight will cost more than twice a 1/2-carat stone. Sometimes, cut and mounting can make an emerald appear larger (or smaller) than its actual weight. So, always ensure about the right weight before you buy it. If you are lucky enough, you might get a clean one over 3 carats with good quality – it is best priced in the market.
- See the cut- it also affects the value of emerald. A poorly cut gemstone will not sparkle nor will it reflect light from the bottom facets. You will be able to see straight through it. In some of the poorly cut stones, the facets overlap and meet at lines instead of points. In an average cut, there is some sparkle but the facets are uneven. In a perfect cut, light reflects from its every facet. You cannot see through it, you can see only the sparkle!
- Examine clarity also though it is not as important in determining value as the color is because fissures, or inclusions are bound to be there in natural emeralds. However, a very poor clarity can lead to durability problems. So, you should be careful of inclusions that reach the surface of the stone. A gemstone with terrible clarity will have too many cracks, whispy white particles, etc. and you will not be able to see into it at all. Light too is not reflected in such poorly valued gemstones. Average clarity means a transparency good enough to catch some light on and off and also a little bit of sparkle. In a perfectly clear emerald, there will be no haziness or typically visible inclusions.
