Genuine Ruby Corundum cylinder beads 3-4mm (ETB00204)
{ D e s c r i p t i o n }
A ruby is a pink to blood-red colored gemstone, a variety of the mineral corundum (aluminium oxide). The red color is caused mainly by the presence of the element chromium. Its name comes from ruber, Latin for red. Other varieties of gem-quality corundum are called sapphires. The ruby is considered one of the four precious stones, together with the sapphire, the emerald, and the diamond.
Prices of rubies are primarily determined by color. The brightest and most valuable "red" called pigeon blood-red, commands a large premium over other rubies of similar quality. After color follows clarity: similar to diamonds, a clear stone will command a premium, but a ruby without any needle-like rutile inclusions may indicate that the stone has been treated. Cut and carat (weight) are also an important factor in determining the price. [source: wikipedia]
You will receive the same quality as you see in my pictures, I always send from the same batch. I will randomly select one strand. As the colour & size can vary slightly, please do not request for one particular strand. You can buy the whole batch to ensure you will get the best ones.

We use Hong Kong Post to send our parcels. For international shipping we use registered mail and we will provide you with a tracking number.
For orders shipping outside of Hong Kong: the recipient of an international shipment may be subject, but not limited to: import taxes, customs duties, and/or fees, which are decided on by the recipient’s own country. Any of these additional import charges are THE SOLE RESPONSIBILITY of the recipient. I have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be. These fees are NOT already figured into my shipping charges. Customs policies vary widely from country to country and are often changing; you should contact your local customs office for further information.
