Color: Ruby's color ranges from deep crimson to vibrant red, often with a hint of purple or pink. The intensity and saturation of red are key factors in determining the value of a ruby. The finest rubies display a vivid, intense red hue known as "pigeon's blood" red.
-
Clarity: Ruby may contain natural inclusions, known as "silk," which are fine needle-like rutile crystals. These inclusions can affect the stone's clarity and transparency but are considered characteristic of rubies and can add to the stone's unique beauty and authenticity.

Origin: Rubies are found in various regions around the world, including Myanmar (formerly Burma), Thailand, Sri Lanka, Madagascar, and Mozambique. Each locality produces rubies with unique characteristics, such as color, clarity, and size. Burmese rubies, particularly those from the Mogok region, are highly prized for their exceptional color and quality.
