"...The art of crystal growing has reached a point
where the distinction between natural and man-made may have become, for
all practical purposes, meaningless" David
Federman, Modern Jeweler, Nov. ‘96.
Our Ramaura™ Cultured Rubies, Nicholas
Created Alexandrites and Empress Cultured
Emeralds are thrilling the public and enriching jewelers. Our gemstones
put smiles on their owners faces and a satisfied certainty that they purchased
the best the world has to offer.
The Ramaura Cultured Ruby represents science at its very
best. Using a technique that mimics nature, we create a ruby that is astonishingly
like natural ruby, inclusions and all! Since 1983, when Judith Osmer started
the J.O. Crystal Co., gemologists voiced concern over the difficulty of
telling Ramaura from natural ruby. The result is that every
Ramaura has a tiny identifier built into its chemistry to
aid gemologists in its identification. The folks at National Geographic
were so impressed they featured the Ramaura on their TV Special
“Splendid Stones”.
You may never have seen a really good ruby until you see a Ramaura
Cultured Ruby. In romantic settings with low levels of light, they
sparkle and gleam with all the beauty promised by the word “ruby”. Companion
products, the Nicholas
Created Alexandrite and Empress Cultured Emerald are also
top of the line gems suitable for use in fine jewelry. The
Nicholas makes an almost total
color change as it is moved from interior lighting to sunlight and the
Empress has that blazing green that enchants emerald lovers the
world over.
