**********OTHER*************    

**Investment grade ruby, originally purchaed in Bangkok, Thailand by me.
 Wholesale Appraisal , which is *much* less than retail (by a US
firm--had it appraised last year):  "One (1) loose faceted cushion cut
ruby.  The ruby measures 6.07mm x 5.67mm x 3.74mm and weighs 1.13 carats.
 The ruby displays a very good color performance with a slight blue
modifying hue.  The saturation is stong and the tone is dark to very
dark.  The ruby is lightly included.  $5420.00".  The inclusions are not
visible to the *** eye and only become apparant with 10-16 power
magnification.  Sell for $4000.00

Thanks for looking.  E-mail me with any questions, etc.  References
available.  Thanks in advance.
