This Natural Ruby, or Manikya, weighs 2.14 carats and presents a rich Purplish Red colour-an attractive meeting of classic ruby red with a subtle violet undertone. This nuanced colour can feel especially elegant in fine jewellery, with the warmth of red softened by a deeper, more velvety mood. Its octagon shape gives the stone a neat, architectural outline that would sit beautifully in a carefully designed ring or pendant.
A particularly important feature is the report of no indications of thermal enhancement. In fine ruby, this is valued because the recorded colour and character are seen without thermal enhancement. Buyers who appreciate natural gem qualities often look closely at this point, especially when choosing a ruby with both beauty and lasting significance. The stone has notable inclusions, a feature that can occur in natural rubies and should be appreciated as part of its individual character.
The gemstone is accompanied by certification from Nine Gems Lab, providing professional documentation for its reported identity and treatment status. At Nine Gems, Bengaluru, we believe a ruby should be appreciated not only for its colour, but also for the clear information that accompanies it. This Manikya would make a refined centre stone for a yellow-gold ring, where its purplish red tone can appear especially warm, or for a bespoke pendant with an understated diamond surround.
In Vedic astrology, ruby is traditionally associated with the Sun (Surya), the planet linked with self-expression, leadership, vitality and personal confidence. Manikya has held an important place in Jyotish tradition for centuries, where it is worn by those seeking to honour or strengthen Surya’s qualities in their horoscope. Its glowing red family of colour naturally suits this solar symbolism, making ruby one of India’s most culturally meaningful precious gemstones.
