This natural Ruby, known in India as Manikya, weighs 2.82 carats and shows a pleasing Pinkish Red colour. This tone brings together the warmth of red with a softer rosy note, giving the gem an inviting, expressive appearance rather than an overly dark look. Ruby has long been treasured as one of the great precious gemstones, admired for its rich colour and its enduring place in royal and traditional jewellery.
The stone carries indications of thermal enhancement, with heating residue reported in fissures. Heating is an established and accepted practice in the ruby trade, and this disclosure helps present the gemstone honestly and clearly. Its notable inclusions are also part of the stone’s visible natural character; inclusions are commonly encountered in rubies and can be considered when choosing a design that gives the gem suitable protection and prominence.
Cut in an oval shape, this Pinkish Red ruby would make a handsome centre for a ring, pendant or a classic custom-made talisman setting. An oval ruby sits beautifully in both yellow gold and platinum, while yellow gold can particularly complement its warm red-pink character. At Nine Gems, Bengaluru, the gemstone is accompanied by certification from Nine Gems Lab, recording its identity and reported treatment observations for the buyer’s reference.
In Vedic gemstone tradition, Manikya is associated with the Sun (Surya), the planet linked with vitality, self-expression, leadership and personal radiance. Ruby has therefore held a respected place in Jyotish jewellery for generations, often worn as a symbolic reminder of Surya’s bright, life-giving presence. Those considering ruby in an astrological context traditionally consult their horoscope and a qualified astrologer to understand whether the Sun is favourable in their chart.
