Rubies are renowned for their regal and rich red colour. Often referred to as Burmese Rubies, Rubies from Myanmar are prized for their history, and Indian legends have long associated them with peace. Their internal features can help to identify where in the world they were formed. Created deep in the Earth’s crust, their incredible durability, second only to Diamond, is what makes them such a brilliant choice for engagement rings. The birth stone for July, and the gem traditionally used to mark 40th wedding anniversaries, Rubies are also a wonderful choice if you are looking for that special gift to mark a milestone.
