This 6.18 carat Natural Ruby, known in India as Manikya, shows a Pinkish Red colour that brings a softer, warmer expression to one of the world’s most cherished gemstones. Rather than a sharply dark red, this shade carries a gentle rosy influence within the ruby’s classic red body colour, giving it an inviting and distinctive look in jewellery.
Ruby has long been admired for its rich colour and its association with importance, vitality and celebration. This oval gemstone has notable inclusions, a feature commonly encountered in natural rubies and part of the individual character visible within the stone. Its substantial size gives a jewellery designer pleasing scope: it would make a handsome centrepiece for a custom ring or a refined pendant, especially when framed with diamonds that complement its warm red tones.
The stone carries indications of thermal enhancement, with heating residue in fissures. This is an accurately reported treatment detail that helps present the ruby’s condition clearly and transparently. It is accompanied by certification from Nine Gems Lab, providing professional documentation for the gemstone and its reported characteristics. At Nine Gems, Bengaluru, we believe such clear disclosure is essential when choosing an important natural coloured gemstone.
In Vedic astrology, Manikya is traditionally associated with the Sun (Surya), regarded as the central luminary in Jyotish. Ruby is traditionally worn to honour Surya and is linked with qualities such as confidence, authority, self-expression and inner strength. Its glowing Pinkish Red presence makes this natural ruby especially suited to a personal jewel with cultural meaning, whether chosen for its enduring beauty or its traditional place among the Navratna gemstones.
