Needless to say,the ‘King of Gemstones’ features at the top of the list. It is called this from the word ‘Ratnaraj’ in Sanskrit, which translates to ‘Ratna’ for Gemstone and ‘Raj’ meaning king.
Connoting love, passion, and prosperity, the ruby is the most ideal gemstone for a ring, considering factors like brilliance, color, and durability. The ideal color for a ruby is called ‘pigeon blood’ and has no pink tones. Please remember that it can also be a very expensive gemstone due to its rarity, especially if you choose a high-end gemstone. Rubies look superb as a princess cut ring, in a bezel setting, as a marquise-cut ring, in a pave setting and in so many other delightful, alluring designs.
Preferred Origin: Burmese or Kenyan ruby is considered the best. It is also mined in Sri Lanka, Afghanistan, and Mozambique.
