Get in touch
This Natural Ruby, traditionally known as Manikya, presents a rich Purplish Red colour that brings a slightly cooler, more velvety note to ruby’s celebrated red body colour. Rather than a plain red, the gentle purple influence gives the stone an expressive character, reminiscent of crimson petals seen in soft evening light. At 1.92 carats, it has a pleasing presence for a refined ring or a personal pendant.
A particularly important feature is its report of no indications of thermal enhancement. This means the ruby’s recorded colour and character have not shown signs of heat treatment, a quality appreciated by buyers who value a gemstone in its naturally expressed state. Prominent inclusions are present; such internal features are commonly encountered in natural rubies and form part of the individual identity of this stone. Its oval shape offers versatile possibilities for a classic solitaire ring, especially when framed by diamonds or set in a warm yellow-gold design.
In Vedic tradition, ruby is associated with the Sun (Surya), the planet linked with vitality, self-expression, confidence, leadership and personal radiance. Manikya has long held an important place in Jyotish as Surya’s principal gemstone. Those considering ruby within a Vedic practice often consult a knowledgeable astrologer to understand how the Sun is placed in their individual horoscope and whether ruby is traditionally suitable for them.
This Natural Ruby is certified by Nine Gems Lab, with documentation accompanying its reported identity and no-heat finding. At Nine Gems, Bengaluru, we value presenting each ruby with clarity and respect for its own natural features. Its purplish red colour, oval form and unheated character make it a meaningful choice for bespoke fine jewellery with a distinctly Indian gemstone tradition behind it.
