This Natural Ruby, known in India as Manikya, weighs 2.66 carats and shows a distinctive Purplish Red colour. The gentle violet undertone gives the red a deeper, more nuanced appearance, rather like crimson petals seen in late-evening light. Ruby has long been admired as one of the most expressive coloured gemstones, and this oval stone has a strong, traditional presence that can suit a finely made ring or a pendant with an elegant, classic profile.
The laboratory report notes indications of thermal enhancement with heating residue in fissures. This is an important disclosure for a ruby, allowing the stone’s recorded condition to be understood clearly at the time of purchase. The gemstone also has notable inclusions, which may be seen in natural rubies and form part of its individual internal character. These details should be appreciated as part of the stone’s natural journey and documented treatment history rather than judged only by a single visual measure.
Certified by Nine Gems Lab, this ruby is accompanied by professional documentation of its identity, colour and reported treatment observations. For a customer choosing a natural ruby, such certification is useful because it records the important characteristics of this particular gemstone. At Nine Gems, Bengaluru, we would especially recommend viewing a ruby like this in person, as purplish red tones can reveal different moods when seen against yellow gold, rose gold or platinum.
In Vedic astrology, Manikya is traditionally associated with the Sun (Surya), the planet linked with vitality, authority, self-expression and inner confidence. Ruby has held a respected place in Jyotish for centuries as Surya’s principal gemstone. Those considering ruby within this tradition often choose it after personal astrological guidance, while jewellery lovers may simply enjoy its rich red colour and enduring cultural importance. Set simply with fine diamonds or worn as a focused solitaire, this oval Natural Ruby can become a meaningful piece of fine jewellery.
