Ruby: The King of Gemstones

The word ruby is derived from the Latin ruber and rubeus, meaning “red.” In Sanskrit, ruby is referred to as “The King of Gemstones”, a title befitting its rich, regal colour and enduring beauty. Rubies are rarer than diamonds, making them a unique and precious choice for jewellery. Their scarcity also makes rubies an ethical alternative to diamonds, as they are less likely to be associated with conflict minerals.

Rubies, symbolising love, passion, and romance, are perfect for engagement rings or special anniversary gifts. Known for their deep red hue, they represent vitality, energy, and desire. Rubies are the birthstone for July and the traditional anniversary gemstones for 15th, 40th, and 80th years of marriage. A ruby is a timeless symbol of enduring love and a stunning addition to any jewellery collection.
