This is a cool STAR Ruby crystal specimen, where one end has been shaped/rounded and polished, which enhances the natural "star" quality. This specimen exhibits an optical phenomenon called "asterism" - a shimmery effect made up of several lines that come together and form a "star.” Asterated gems are also called "star" gems. The stone itself is from India. The star effect is difficult to accurately capture in photos, but rest assured it is there. Much nicer 'in person' than photos can show.
The length of the specimen has been lightly shaped but is mainly natural/unpolished looking. A variety of physical textures are present as you run your fingers over the stone. It has a deep pink-ish purple coloring with that lovely shimmery star quality in the "dome" of the polished end that becomes visible here and there as you move the stone around beneath a bright light source.
ALL inclusions present are 100% natural parts of the stone. Check out how it works with subtle energies below!
It weighs about 12 grams / 60 carats and measures about 1" inch long by just under 1/2" inch wide at the widest point (varies a bit throughout). Code-040924-40
