The History and Lore of Rubies

Rubies have a rich history dating back thousands of years. Ancient cultures revered rubies for their stunning beauty and believed they held powerful properties.

In ancient India, rubies were known as "ratnaraj," which means "king of precious stones." They were thought to protect warriors in battle and bring peace and prosperity to their owners.

In Burma (modern-day Myanmar), rubies were believed to grant invincibility if inserted into the flesh.

Throughout history, rubies have adorned the crowns and jewellery of royalty. Their deep red color symbolizes wealth, power, and passion.

In medieval Europe, rubies were considered a stone of prophecy, believed to darken in color when danger was near.

The Unique Characteristics of Rubies

Rubies are a variety of the mineral corundum, the same mineral that forms sapphires.

What sets rubies apart is their distinct red color, which ranges from deep crimson to pale rose. This red hue is due to the presence of chromium in the crystal structure.

One of the most remarkable features of rubies is their hardness. With a rating of 9 on the Mohs scale, rubies are the second hardest gemstone after diamonds, making them an excellent choice for everyday wear. Their durability, combined with their stunning color, makes ruby jewellery both beautiful and practical.
