Natural Ruby (Manik) Gemstones

A natural ruby is a red gemstone composed of the mineral corundum (aluminum oxide). The intense red color of a ruby is caused by the presence of chromium in the crystal structure. Rubies are one of the traditional cardinal gems, along with sapphires, emeralds, and diamonds. When purchasing a natural ruby, it's recommended to buy from reputable and established jewelers who provide information about the stone's origin, treatments, and other relevant details. If you're looking for a valuable and authentic ruby, it's advisable to seek the guidance of a gemologist or a knowledgeable jeweler.
