or my FB store, as I do 99.99% of my business on Facebook & many times my stones do not make it to Esty before being sold.

Rubellite like Emerald is a GIA type 3 gemstone, which means normally included. This Rubellite is pretty clean for the species, being eye clean to a small portion being slightly (small eye visible inclusions) included held in hand as it would appear mounted. The video with the combination of my fingerprints showing through does not do the clarity of this stone justice. Nicer in hand in real life.
Like Emerald, Rubellite is appreciated & cut for color, not sparkle. This stone looks like a lozenge hot reddish pink candy that you’d pop in your mouth. Medium tone & strong saturation guarantees this stone will never be dark, but always bright & attractive. No brown. No gray. Just gem color Rubellite. Reminds me of the old Nigerian material.
