Common FAQs about Ruby Stones

1. How to buy a genuine ruby stone?

To buy a genuine ruby stone, focus on the 4Cs of gemstones: color, clarity, cut, and carat weight. Always check the stone’s color—vivid red or pigeon-blood red is the finest. Ask for a gemstone certification (like GIA, IGI, or GRS) to ensure authenticity. Purchase only from trusted jewelers, gem dealers, or reputable online platforms that provide return policies and transparency about treatments.

2. What is the price of ruby stone per carat?

Ruby stone prices vary widely depending on quality and origin.

• Low quality (treated rubies): $10 – $100 per carat
• Medium quality (good color, minor inclusions): $500 – $5,000 per carat
• High quality (untreated, pigeon-blood Burmese rubies): $10,000 – $100,000+ per carat
  The highest recorded price is over $1 million per carat for rare auction-grade rubies.

3. How to identify original ruby stone?

An original ruby will:

• Show a deep red to purplish-red color with natural inclusions.
• Feel heavier than glass or imitation stones.
• Scratch glass due to its hardness (Mohs scale 9).
• Glow under UV light if chromium is present.
  For certainty, always rely on a gemological lab test and certificate.

4. Where to buy certified ruby gemstones?

Certified ruby gemstones can be purchased from:

• Reputable jewelry stores with in-house gemologists
• Trusted online gemstone retailers that provide lab reports
• Gemstone auctions and trade shows for collectors
  Ensure the ruby comes with certification from GIA, IGI, GRS, or AGL, confirming origin, treatment, and authenticity.

5. What are the benefits of ruby gemstone?

Ruby gemstones are believed to have both astrological and symbolic benefits:

• Enhances confidence, courage, and leadership
• Attracts love, passion, and vitality
• Brings prosperity and success (linked with the Sun in Vedic astrology)
• Provides protection against negativity
  While benefits vary by belief, rubies are widely cherished for their power and symbolism.

6. How to care for and clean ruby jewelry?

• Use lukewarm water, mild soap, and a soft brush for cleaning
• Avoid ultrasonic cleaners if the ruby has treatments like glass filling
• Store rubies separately to prevent scratches from harder stones like diamonds
• Periodically get your ruby jewelry checked by a jeweler to ensure secure settings

7. What is the significance of pigeon’s blood color in rubies?

“Pigeon’s blood” rubies are the rarest and most valuable rubies, known for their vivid, pure red color with a slight bluish undertone. Traditionally associated with Burmese rubies, this color grade commands premium prices in the global market. Collectors and investors highly prize these rubies because of their beauty, rarity, and auction history.

8. How to differentiate natural ruby from synthetic rubies?

• Natural rubies form underground over millions of years and often contain inclusions.
• Synthetic rubies are grown in labs but have the same chemical composition.
  Differences:
• Natural rubies show uneven color distribution and natural inclusions.
• Synthetic rubies may look too perfect, with curved growth lines visible under magnification.
  Lab testing and certification remain the most reliable way to confirm authenticity.

9. What treatments are done on rubies and how do they affect price?

Common ruby treatments include:

• Heat treatment: Improves color/clarity. Widely accepted and keeps good value.
• Lead-glass filling: Enhances transparency but lowers durability and price.
• Flux healing: Fills fractures with foreign material; less valuable than untreated rubies.
  Untreated rubies with vivid red color are extremely rare and can cost exponentially more than treated stones.
