Fine cabochon Burma rubies over five carats are only occasionally seen in the market due to a number of factors, including the relative rarity of the element chromium, and how infrequently the correct conditions existed in geologic history for this particular species of gem to form. Matched untreated Burma rubies of size are rare.
