Extra Large Ruby Fuchsite Heart (Channapatna Specimen)

Material: Natural Ruby in Fuchsite Weight: 9.4 kg Dimensions: 9 x 9 x 4 inches Origin: Channapatna Mines, Karnataka, India This monumental 9.4kg specimen is a masterfully carved heart, showcasing the rare and vibrant synergy of Ruby and Fuchsite from the renowned Channapatna mines. The substantial 9x9x4 inch form features a lush, mossy green Fuchsite base that provides a striking contrast to the numerous "islands" of deep pink-to-red Ruby crystals embedded throughout. Its surface is polished to a glass-like luster, highlighting the natural shimmering mica within the green matrix and the unique mineral structures of the raw corundum. The heart’s proportions are exceptionally wide and "puffy," giving it a powerful, grounding presence that serves as a definitive centerpiece for any space. The balanced distribution of ruby inclusions creates a rhythmic, organic pattern that feels both ancient and alive. Whether valued for its heart-centered energy or as a significant geological statement piece, this XL heart represents an extraordinary scale for this specific mineral combination.
