Rubies are one of the most popular gemstones throughout history. Their rich red color have long been seen as a symbol of love, passion, and sexual desire. Rubies were typically used as crown jewels in royal families. Because of this, ruby jewelry also represented wealth, power, and authority. They were often known as the Lord of Gems.

When shopping for ruby jewelry, keep in mind that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Many different shades of red are available depending on your own preferences. For the most part, rubies that are pure red with no overtones of purple or brown are considered more desirable.

Because they range in clarity, the more opaque ones are often cut into smooth surfaces such as a cabochon to showcase the color, while gems with better clarity are cut in facets to display some flare.
