One of the most precious of gems, the ruby can easily be the equal of a diamond in value. In India and China the ruby is worn to promote health and happiness. A power ascribed to the ruby both in the Orient and Europe was the ability to foretell danger by a loss of color and brilliance.
All gemstones are selected with the aim to provide the greatest benefits. The stones are as internally and externally free from inclusions and blemishes as possible. The suggested minimum weight for these gemstones is 1 & 1/2 to 2 carats. The principle here is that the larger and "cleaner" the stone, the better the results.
