This specimen features inter grown Corundum Ruby crystals embedded within a white Marble matrix, originating from Afghanistan. The vivid red to pink hues of the Rubies contrast beautifully against the smooth, white Marble, showcasing the natural beauty of these two minerals. The Rubies, formed through the process of metamorphism, exhibit a prismatic to hexagonal shape with a translucent to opaque luster. Their sharp, well-defined crystal structures are accentuated by the surrounding Marble, which serves as a natural backdrop, enhancing the visual appeal. This unique combination of Ruby and Marble highlights Afghanistan’s rich geological history and is highly prized by collectors and gem enthusiasts for its rarity and aesthetic appeal.
