Ruby Jewelry

Red gemstones from Myanmar.

Jewelry with red ruby is known since more than two-thousand  years, maybe more. The best gems in this time frame came from Sri Lanka, India and today Myanmar, in present times also substantial mining is done in Madagascar and some other African countries but this is not top quality.
 

They create very pretty things which lets the eyes of women getting brighter especially in a composition with diamonds. When having a walk through the Bogyoke Market in Yangon great works of somehow art can be discovered. This is also the premier shopping mall for ruby gemstones and other genuine glittering things such as jade and semi precious stones.

History reveals and repeats Burmese ruby jewelry is the best beside diamonds

The fascinating red glow with magical powers still attracts much superstition it’s somehow similar to jade with Chinese people.  All this is questionable; it only stands out for sure as fine jewelry either mined in Mogok or Mong Hsu the two sources where Myanmar rubies come from.

The value of the red version of corundum is determined by its color, clarity and size. Although all have a slight bluish hue the high prices are paid for “Pigeons Blood” colored stones which is without the blue and highly fluorescent in any sort of light. These stones are extremely rare and are only mined in Mogok district about 120 km north of Mandalay not very far from the Irrawaddy river.  

Jewelry made from precious stones is not only attractive but it is also durable which makes it easy to wear every day. It is the rarity what makes these gems so valuable. In fact many are more valuable than diamonds of similar size and clarity.

Ruby jewelry is a real “eye catcher and it is even better in a composition with small diamonds grouped around. That is for pendants, necklaces, finger ring, earrings, bracelets and bangles. This is used extensively for wedding and engagement rings since it is always associated with passion and love.

Many designs are available to choose from either at online shops or at real outlets. Myanmar designs well suited for both men (rings) and women.
