More Interesting Facts About Ruby Rings......
Rubies are the birthstones of those born in the month of July. They are made up of the mineral corundum, although the red colour comes from the presence of chromium within the stone. Their worth is predominantly determined by their colour, with the most vibrant, blood-red stones commanding the best prices. As with other stones, clarity, cut and carat also effect the price.
Rubies come from Afghanistan, Thailand, Sri Lanka, Madagascar, Vietnam and Kenya. On the Mohs´ scale, which rates hardness of gems, rubies are rated a 9, just below diamonds which are a 10.
To improve their clarity and appearance, most rubies undergo some heat treatment. Dyes can also be used to intensify the colour or coatings applied to cover up cracks and fissures, which is why care should be taken when cleaning. Simply use soapy water and a soft brush, rather then any harsh abbrasive chemicals or ultra sonic jewellery cleaners.
Rubies are believed to protect the wearer against misfortune and bad health and were once laid under the foundations of buildings to secure the structure had good fortune.
