This Natural Ruby, traditionally known as Manikya, carries the classic red colour that has made ruby one of the most admired gems in fine jewellery for centuries. Red is the signature colour of ruby, admired for its rich, warm presence and its association with vitality and regal ornament. At 1.98 carats, this oval ruby has a pleasing size for a ring, pendant or a refined custom design where the gemstone remains the centre of attention.
The stone shows indications of thermal enhancement, with heating residue reported in fissures. This is an important disclosed feature of the ruby’s recorded condition and should be appreciated with clarity when choosing a natural coloured gemstone. Its notable inclusions are also part of the stone’s visible character; inclusions are commonly encountered in natural rubies and make each gem visually individual. The oval shape can sit beautifully in a classic four-claw ring or an elegant pendant, especially when framed with diamonds or paired with warm yellow gold.
In Vedic gem tradition, Manikya is associated with the Sun (Surya), the planet linked with self-expression, leadership, confidence and personal presence. Ruby has long held an important place in Jyotish as Surya’s principal gemstone. Those who follow Vedic astrology often consider the Sun’s position in the birth chart before wearing a ruby, making proper astrological guidance valuable when the gem is intended for that purpose.
This Natural Ruby is certified by Nine Gems Lab, providing professional documentation for its reported identity, weight, colour and treatment observations. At Nine Gems, Bengaluru, we appreciate that a ruby is chosen not only for its traditional significance but also for the warmth and distinction it brings to a personal jewel. Its classic red colour and wearable oval form make it a meaningful choice for bespoke jewellery with enduring appeal.
