No Treatments (Unheated/Untreated)

Transparency:
Transparent

Clarity Grade:
Very Slightly Included

Clarity Grade Description:
Inclusions are very slightly visible on close eye inspection but don't detract the viewer's eye from the stone's beauty

Gemologist's Comments on Clarity:
Such a high level of transparency is rarely seen in natural & unheated/untreated rubies of Burmese origin, particularly in stones over 2 carats in weight.

The features seen in the stone's pavilion are naturally occurring rough, unpolished surface areas. When cutting & polishing rubies, it's a common practice to intentionally keep certain portions of the stone in the natural, rough, unpolished form, particularly in the pavilion/bottom of the stone. This is done to preserve the carat weight and maintain the stone's overall shape/symmetry. Such minor external features are commonly seen in most natural & unheated/untreated rubies, especially ones from Burma. Since they are located in the pavilion, they don't affect the stone's clarity, face-up appearance, or luster.
