Ruby - Rough


This is what an uncut Ruby looks like:

If it's undamaged, it will be a hexagonal crystal.

Saphires are the same, only blue.

If they aren't Red or Blue, they're still saphires.

They can be gray, beige or brown, and end up being on your Emery Board nail file.

They are also known as Corundum, Al2 O3, and Emery.

Just so you know.
