This Natural Ruby, traditionally known as Manikya, weighs 3.96 carats and carries the classic red colour that has made ruby one of the most admired gems in fine jewellery. Red ruby has long been associated with warmth, courage and regal ornament, its colour recalling a rich pomegranate seed or the depth of a crimson flower. The oval shape gives the stone a graceful outline, well suited to a ring designed around the gem itself.
The laboratory report notes indications of thermal enhancement with heating residue in fissures. Heating is an established practice in the ruby trade, and this disclosure gives a clear account of the gemstone’s recorded condition. Its notable inclusions are also part of the stone’s natural visual character; inclusions are commonly encountered in rubies and can be appreciated as features formed during the gem’s growth within the earth.
Certified by Nine Gems Lab, this ruby is accompanied by professional documentation identifying it as a natural ruby and recording its reported treatment status. At Nine Gems, Bengaluru, we believe such clear certification helps a customer understand the gemstone with ease before choosing a setting. An oval Manikya can look particularly handsome in a classic yellow-gold solitaire ring, where the warm metal complements its red colour, or as the centre of a refined pendant with a clean, tailored surround.
In Vedic astrology, ruby is traditionally connected with the Sun (Surya). Manikya holds an important place in Jyotish as the gem associated with Surya, the planet traditionally linked with self-expression, leadership, vitality and honour. Many people value ruby not only for its enduring beauty but also for this deep cultural association. Those considering a gemstone for Vedic purposes often consult a knowledgeable astrologer to understand whether the Sun and its traditional gem are appropriate within their individual horoscope.
