A ruby is a precious gemstone that belongs to the corundum family, which also includes sapphires. The red color of a ruby is primarily due to the presence of chromium within the crystal structure. Rubies can range in color from pinkish-red to a deep, vivid red, often described as “pigeon’s blood” red. Rubies have been prized for centuries for their rich color, durability, and symbolic associations with love, passion, and power.

  • Cleaning: Clean ruby jewellery with warm, soapy water and a soft brush. Use mild dish soap and a soft toothbrush to gently scrub the stone and setting. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and pat dry with a soft cloth.
  • Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not expose rubies to harsh chemicals, including household cleaners and bleach, as these can damage the stone or its setting.
  • Storage: Store rubies separately from other gemstones and jewellery to prevent scratches. Use soft cloth pouches or lined compartments in a jewellery box.
  • Regular Check-ups: Periodically have your ruby jewellery inspected by a professional jeweller to ensure the stone is secure in its setting and to professionally clean the piece if needed.

Yes, rubies are very durable. They have a hardness of 9 on the Mohs scale, making them the second hardest natural gemstone, only surpassed by diamonds. This high hardness makes rubies resistant to scratching and suitable for everyday wear. However, rubies can still be chipped or damaged by hard impacts, so care should be taken to avoid rough handling or exposure to extreme conditions.

  • Color: The most critical factor in determining a ruby’s value is its color. The most valuable rubies are those with a pure, vivid red hue, often referred to as “pigeon’s blood” red. Stones with secondary hues, such as orange or purple, are generally less valuable.
  • Clarity: High-quality rubies are typically free from visible inclusions. While some inclusions are acceptable, especially in larger stones, those that significantly affect the stone’s transparency or brilliance can reduce its value.
  • Cut: The quality of the cut affects the ruby’s overall appearance and brilliance. Well-cut rubies that maximize the stone’s natural color and minimize visible inclusions are more valuable.
  • Carat Weight: Larger rubies are rarer and more valuable, especially if they maintain good color and clarity. The price per carat can increase significantly for larger stones.
  • Origin: The origin of a ruby can also impact its value. Rubies from certain locations, such as Myanmar (Burma), are highly prized for their exceptional color and quality. Rubies from other regions, such as Madagascar or Mozambique, can also be valuable but may be valued differently based on their color and clarity characteristics.

Yes, rubies are often treated to enhance their color and clarity. Common treatments include:

  1. Heat Treatment: Heat treatment is the most common enhancement for rubies. It can improve color and clarity by removing silk inclusions and enhancing the stone’s overall appearance. Heat treatment is generally stable and permanent and is widely accepted in the gem trade.
  2. Fracture Filling: Some rubies undergo fracture filling with lead glass or other materials to improve clarity by filling surface-reaching fractures. This treatment can significantly enhance the appearance of lower-quality stones but can affect the durability and value of the ruby.
  3. Diffusion Treatment: This treatment involves the addition of elements like beryllium during the heating process to enhance or change the color of the ruby. Diffusion-treated rubies can have vibrant colors, but this treatment should always be disclosed as it can affect the stone’s value and stability.

When purchasing a ruby, it is important to inquire about any treatments the stone has undergone, as this information impacts the gem’s value and care requirements. Reputable sellers will disclose any treatments to ensure transparency and trust.
