Ruby rings have long captured the imagination of those drawn to bold beauty and timeless elegance. From ancient kings to modern collectors, ruby has stood as a gemstone that means more than just luxury—it’s a symbol of strength, love, and lasting value.
At Gemstone Western Australia, we don’t just offer fine jewelry—we help you understand the story and craftsmanship behind each piece. Whether you’re exploring gemstones for the first time or expanding a personal collection, this guide is designed to support confident, well-informed decisions built on quality and trust.
Rubies are a variety of the mineral corundum, with their red hue coming from trace amounts of chromium. But while the science is interesting, it’s the emotional and historical value that truly defines their appeal.
This blend of beauty and strength turns each piece into more than just jewelry—it becomes a lasting heirloom.
Shopping for fine gemstone jewelry requires more than just picking a design—it’s about understanding the stone itself. Each ruby has a unique character shaped by its natural features and the skill of the craftsman who sets it. Knowing what to look for ensures you find a piece that holds lasting meaning and quality.
Here’s what you should look for:
The most prized rubies have a deep, vivid red with a slight hint of blue—what gemologists call "pigeon blood red." But great rubies also come in other shades, including rich pinkish reds and darker tones.
Pro tip: A ruby that’s too dark may appear dull, while one that’s too light can resemble a pink sapphire. Aim for vibrant mid-tones with even color.
Unlike diamonds, rubies almost always have some inclusions. These tiny internal features are not necessarily flaws—they can indicate the stone's authenticity. The key is to find a ruby where inclusions don’t affect transparency or brilliance.
At Gemstone Western Australia, our gemologists handpick rubies with the right balance of clarity and character.
Rubies can be cut into many shapes: oval, cushion, pear, or round. The goal is to show off the ruby’s color while maximizing light return. A poor cut can make a ruby look lifeless, even if its color is perfect.
Craftsmanship matters. We ensure every ring setting supports the gemstone visually and structurally, enhancing its natural appeal.
Rubies are mined in Myanmar (Burma), Mozambique, Sri Lanka, and Thailand. Each origin has its characteristics, and some, like Burmese rubies, are especially valued.
We always disclose origin and treatment status to our clients, so you know exactly what you're buying.
Many rubies on the market have been heat-treated to improve color or clarity. This widely accepted practice doesn’t necessarily reduce a ruby’s value. However, untreated rubies with excellent natural color are rarer and often more valuable.
We clearly label whether a ruby has been treated. Our mission is transparency—from mine to showroom.
These gemstones aren’t just visually stunning—they hold a deeper meaning that lasts across generations. Whether you're choosing a gift or celebrating a personal milestone, they remain one of the most enduring and meaningful choices in fine jewelry.
