Ruby, the symbolic stone of love and anger, passion and fury, was believed by early cultures to hold the power of life due to its flaming red color, reminiscent of the blood that flows in our veins. Ancient Hindus believed that offering fine rubies to the krishna would reincarnate as emperors while European royalty sought after them for their fine color and rare beauty.

Ruby, ratnarja which means “king of precious stones” in sanskrit, ranges from orangey red to purplish red. The most valuable rubies are found in Myanmar and are referred to as “pigeon’s Blood” for their deep color.
