In the ancient Indian language of Sanskrit, ruby is called "ratnaraj", which translates as "king of precious stones". Ancient Hindus believed that by making an offering of a ruby to Krishna, rebirth as an emperor was assured. Warriors believed that rubies would make them invincible, and even implanted rubies under their skin. To save you going to this extreme we have mounted this beautiful 6ct square ruby in this two tone sterling silver mount. A real talking point. Note: Due To The Natural Occurrence Of Gemstones, Appearance May Vary Slightly
