Description

Beautiful hand selected natural Ruby crystal from Mauritania. You will receive the exact Ruby crystal pictured.

Ruby is the name given to the red variety of the mineral Corundum- all other colours of it are given the name Sapphire. The name derives from the Latin word 'ruber', describing its colour. They have been prized for centuries for their colour, and many ancient civilisations valued them higher than diamonds. During the Renaissance for example, Rubies were worth 8 x Diamonds, and Emeralds were worth 4 x Diamonds.

In the mid 1800s, Sapphires and Emeralds were of equal value and worth less than half a diamond, whilst a larger perfect Ruby would still far exceed a Diamond of the same weight. The most desired colour of Ruby is known as Pigeon's Blood, and comes from Myanmar. In 2015 a Burmese Ruby ring, the Sunrise Ruby, which holds the title for the largest coloured gemstone in the world, sold at auction for $30 million to an anonymous buyer. Other important Ruby deposits are found in Thailand, Sri Lanka and Tanzania, with the colours varying from each location.
