IMPORTANT NOTE: This item contains fissure filled cavities that may contain glass, cobalt, or other materials. Due to the presence of these materials, this item should be referred to as a composite stone.
The process of fracture filling ruby with transparent lead glass is a recent innovation that began about 2004 in Chanthaburi, Thailand. Rubies of good color, primarily from Madagascar, that are disfigured by fissures or surface cracks can be "repaired" using heat treatment with lead glass. The refractive index of corundum and lead glass are very similar, allowing light to travel through the stone, improving the color and clarity. These rubies are often found in large sizes at a fraction of the cost of untreated ruby of similar color. So they represent an excellent value in the market, so long as the treatment is disclosed and the price is appropriate. The Asian Institute of Gemology tested fractured filled rubies for durability and found them to be more durable than a typical emerald fracture-filled with oil or resin. AIGS advised against excessive heating with a jeweler's torch, but found no negative effects from cleaning with detergents or ultrasonic devices. They advise that hydrofluoric acid should not be used on these gems, and that any recutting or repolishing should be performed with care.(article by courtesy of Gemselect from chanthaburi,Thailand)
