Hi! I purchased an estate diamond and ruby ring which has not yet arrived or I would show pictures. I''d like to have it appraised while I''m within the return period but I know there is a general lack of knowledge on fine rubies among many appraisers since they are so rarely seen. I contacted Gemworld International two days ago and have yet to hear back. I know there are far more cruddy stones out there than real finds but I think it has the potential to be promising since it comes with an appraisal from 1973 which states it to be a genuine burma (we''ll see) ruby of 2.5 carats and the color appears blood red, no pink or purple overtones. Any suggestions on appraisers if Gemworld does not get back to me? Thank you!
