Ruby is a variety of the mineral Corundum — aluminium oxide — whose rich red colouration is caused by trace amounts of chromium within its crystal structure. It is one of the four precious gemstones alongside Diamond, Emerald, and Sapphire, and has been revered across cultures for thousands of years as a stone of royalty, passion, and divine power. Ruby rates 9 on the Mohs hardness scale, making it the second hardest natural mineral after Diamond. The finest and most historically prized Rubies come from Myanmar (Burma) — particularly the Mogok Valley, known as the "Valley of Rubies" — where exceptional specimens display the legendary "pigeon's blood" red: a pure, vivid crimson with a faint blue undertone considered the pinnacle of Ruby quality. Mozambique has emerged in recent decades as one of the world's most significant sources of fine gem-quality Ruby, producing stones of exceptional colour and size that rival the finest Burmese material.

Ruby is known as the "Stone of Nobility" and one of the most powerfully energising and passionate crystals in existence. It is believed to ignite the life force within its keeper, stimulate the heart with courage and passion, attract abundance and prosperity, and provide a powerful shield of protection — making it one of the most revered and sought-after stones across all cultures and throughout all of recorded history.
