Glowing with energy, these pink and red hued precious stones are a heart lifter. It is one of the four traditional main gemstones worn by nobility through the ages.
Its power in history is unmatched. In Middle Ages Europe, wearing Rubies was believed to bring good health to the wearer. In Burma, where the stone is famously found, they went further and put them underneath the skin for protection. Mongol Emperor Kublai Khan is said to have traded away a whole city for one large Ruby in 13th century China. In many ancient Asian cultures, the Ruby was a sort of seer stone. Given to loved ones to ward away evil and protect the strongest of emotions, love and rage.
Today we wear them for love; A symbol of devotion and passion to be passed down as heirlooms as has been done for centuries.
