Too bad it was heat treated to get the color or
I would have bought it from you.

Nice looking, hope someone trades something for it.

Thank you Texastee2007 for replying. And boy do I mean it!

I am going to wait a couple of days to see what is offered..kind of like how you women all shop!

LOL

But I can say right now..if nothing else comes..I would LOVE to have that arrowhead hanging in my livingroom.

God Bless,

BB

I'll have to think about that. Those things are pretty rare up here in New England.

Is it possible to put a ball park figure on this ruby even though it's heat treated?
Is it 10, 100, 1000 bucks? Just curious, I don't know much about gem stones.

If you like the arrowhead....send me a PM with a way to get it to you and I will send it...no strings attached...knowing you liked it is enough...It is better to give then to receive...is this not what we are taught? so it is yours.

Very nice gesture texastee. Good for you! :hello2: :wav:

When I bought it, it was simply stated. A very common practice with almost all gems. Do the research.

The actual size is 9mmx8mmx4mm.

A nice size stone to be placed in a gold setting.
