Science & Origin of Ruby

Ruby is a an extremely hard aluminum oxide (called corundum) with a hexagonal crystal system. It is the red variety of corundum as well as one of the primary varieties, along with Sapphire. Ruby’s color range includes red, reddish-pink, and blood orange red and can sometimes be found in blue and green varieties. Depending on the variety it can appear in pink, blue, and green. The bold and intense red color is caused by chromium, and occasionally inclusions of titanium oxide causes light diffusion within the Ruby in the shape of a six pointed star. Ruby was named after the Latin word meaning “red”. It is primarily found in Burma, India, Brazil, Thailand, Sri Lanka, and USA.

This unique crystal has been known to exist since before the time of the Bible, but up until the early 1800’s, many Rubies consisted of what is now known as red Spinels and Garnets. Many ancient legends revolve around the use of Rubies throughout human history. In Burma, inserting a Ruby into one’s flesh would make them invulnerable and provide protection. During the Middle Ages in Europe, Rubies were used to convey good health and remove negative energies from the user. Chinese lore has also said that Emperor Kublai Khan offered an entire city in exchange for a very large Ruby.
