This Natural Ruby, traditionally known as Manikya, weighs 2.17 carats and carries a rich Purplish Red colour. The gentle violet undertone gives the red a distinctive, slightly cooler expression, like crimson petals seen in late-evening light. Ruby has long been admired as one of the most important coloured gemstones, valued for the intensity and warmth that red brings to fine jewellery. Its oval form offers a graceful outline for a ring, pendant or a refined bespoke design.
A particularly appealing 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 in the laboratory examination. Such no-heat documentation is especially appreciated by buyers of fine rubies because it preserves an important part of the stone’s natural journey. Prominent inclusions are present, as can occur in natural ruby, and form part of the individual character of this gemstone.
The stone is accompanied by certification from Nine Gems Lab and IIGJ Research & Laboratories | GJEPC (IIGJ), providing professional documentation for its identification and reported treatment status. At Nine Gems, Bengaluru, we value clear disclosure so that the beauty of a natural ruby can be appreciated alongside the information that matters when choosing a gemstone. Set with warm yellow gold, this Purplish Red ruby would create a classic, regal look; in platinum or white gold, its cool red-violet nuance can appear especially elegant.
In Vedic tradition, Manikya is associated with the Sun (Surya), the celestial symbol of vitality, authority, self-expression and inner confidence. Ruby holds a revered place in Jyotish as Surya’s gemstone, traditionally worn by those who seek to honour the qualities connected with the Sun in their horoscope. This association is part of a long Indian gem tradition, making natural ruby meaningful not only as fine jewellery but also as a gemstone of cultural and astrological interest.
