Formed millions of years ago in the heart of Myanmar, historically known as Burma, this ruby is a testament to the geological wonders of our planet. Rubies are formed under high pressure and temperature conditions deep within the Earth’s crust. As molten rock cools and solidifies, aluminum oxide crystallizes with traces of chromium, which bestows upon the ruby the rich and vivid red hue that it is celebrated for. From its ancient beginnings to its careful mining by skilled hands, the ruby has undergone meticulous craftsmanship to reveal its innate splendor.

At The Natural Ruby Company, we present this ruby with an excellent polish that affirms our commitment to quality. The radiant finish of this stone is not just a result of its mineralogy but a testimony to the skillful artistry involved in shaping such a prized gem. Whether set into fine jewelry or cherished as a standalone piece, this Burmese ruby continues to embody the majestic beauty of nature’s gifts. Its enduring allure and historical significance offer a glimpse into a world millions of years in the making, waiting to complement and elevate your collection.
