Once out of the ground and for sale rubies are judged by the quality of their cut, colour and clarity.

The stamps with the cut gems are fantastic. The first stamp made me laugh.
Opal is always fascinating - its play of colors.
The two Australian gems stamps are appealing to me...
I love the opal stamps, especially the first. I love opals! I have a Mexican fire opal ring, and had one of the more traditional kind, my first wedding ring actually. Unfortunately, those opals are too soft for everyday wear and household chores. :(
The opals are stunning!
The colours of the opals are fascinating. And that rubi seems a real one, with those reflections!
