Choosing a Ruby Ring
Ruby is a hard, durable stone (9 on the Mohs scale) and well suited to daily wear. Colour drives value — a vivid, slightly purplish red is the most prized. Burma (Myanmar) rubies are especially sought after, and unheated stones command a premium. We note origin and treatment where known.
