This 1.76 carat Natural Ruby, known in India as Manikya, shows a rich Purplish Red colour that brings a slightly cooler, more nuanced note to ruby’s classic red appeal. The colour has a pleasing depth, reminiscent of crimson flowers touched by twilight, and gives the stone a distinctive personality rather than a plain primary red appearance. Its oval shape is versatile for a refined ring or an elegant pendant.
Ruby has long been treasured as one of the most important coloured gemstones, admired for its enduring association with warmth, vitality and regal ornament. This gemstone has notable inclusions, a feature that can occur naturally in rubies and should be appreciated as part of its individual visual character. The stone’s documented treatment status notes indications of thermal enhancement with heating residue in fissures; this is clearly disclosed in its certification and is an important consideration when selecting a ruby.
Certified by Nine Gems Lab, this Natural Ruby is accompanied by professional documentation identifying its reported gemstone details. At Nine Gems, Bengaluru, we believe a fine gemstone should be chosen with a clear understanding of its colour, natural features and declared enhancement status. This makes the ruby especially suitable for a bespoke design where its individual Purplish Red tone can be given pride of place, perhaps framed by diamonds in a classic yellow-gold ring or pendant.
In Vedic astrology, Manikya is traditionally associated with the Sun (Surya). Within Jyotish, Surya represents self-expression, authority, confidence, purpose and vitality, and ruby has historically been worn as the Sun’s principal gemstone. Many people value a natural ruby not only for its beauty in jewellery, but also for this enduring cultural connection to Surya and the traditional symbolism of inner strength and leadership.
