This natural Ruby, known in India as Manikya, carries the classic red colour that has made ruby one of the most admired gemstones in fine jewellery for centuries. Red ruby has an unmistakable warmth, recalling the rich tone of a pomegranate seed or a small ember held close to the light. At 1.96 carats, this octagon-cut ruby has a pleasing presence for a refined ring, pendant or a traditional gold setting.
A particularly important feature is its no indications of thermal enhancement status. The recorded red colour and character of this ruby have not been thermally enhanced, a quality many buyers appreciate in natural rubies. Such stones are valued for presenting their colour in the state reported by the laboratory, making this an especially interesting Manikya for someone who values natural gemological character.
Prominent inclusions are reported in this ruby. Inclusions are commonly encountered in natural rubies and are part of the stone’s individual formation story; they should be considered when choosing the style of setting. An octagon design can suit a clean-lined, contemporary jewel beautifully, while a protective bezel or thoughtfully designed claw setting may frame the gemstone with elegance. This ruby is accompanied by certification from Nine Gems Lab, documenting its reported identity and treatment status.
In Vedic astrology, ruby is traditionally associated with the Sun (Surya), the graha linked with confidence, authority, self-expression and inner strength. Manikya has long held an important place in Jyotish traditions for those seeking to honour Surya through a gemstone. At Nine Gems, Bengaluru, this natural no-heat ruby can be appreciated both as a vivid symbol of the Sun and as a distinctive gemstone for bespoke fine jewellery.
