Rubies have long been prized for their rich, red color and are among the most sought-after gemstones in the world. Rubies are made of the mineral corundum, which also forms sapphires. Rubies are formed under high pressure and heat deep within the Earth's crust. Their color ranges in shades of red, from pinkish to orangish to darker red, depending on the chromium content. The most prized rubies are typically a vibrant, pure red with a hint of blue, often referred to as "pigeon's blood" red. High-quality rubies, especially those larger than one carat, are rare and can be extremely valuable. Factors affecting a ruby's value include its color, clarity, cut, and carat weight. According to the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), rubies can gross the highest per-carat price of any other colored gemstone, highlighting their rarity and desirability. Rubies are incredibly durable, with a hardness of 9 on the Mohs Scale. This makes them as resilient as sapphires and only slightly softer than diamonds, which have a hardness of 10. This durability makes rubies suitable for everyday wear in various types of jewelry, including rings and bracelets. Rubies are often associated with passion, love, and romance, making them an ideal gift for romantic occasions. As unique alternatives to diamond engagement rings, rubies are a popular choice for engagement rings, anniversary bands, and other fine jewelry. They are also given as gifts for significant milestones, such as the 15th and 40th wedding anniversaries because their deep red color symbolizes intense emotions and enduring love.
