Ruby (Manik) Cushion-Rose – BTR114

A loose Ruby (Manik), cushion cut, offered by weight for jewellery, collecting and astrological use.

This is a loose ruby, not a finished piece of jewellery; no metal setting is included. Weight options: 3 Ratti to 18 Ratti (16 options). The listing describes the tone as rose; gems vary, so ask for a daylight photo if the exact shade matters. Weights step from 3 Ratti to 18 Ratti, and larger weights mean a larger stone.

About ruby

Cushion cuts have soft, rounded corners and are a traditional choice for bold ring settings. Ruby (Manik) is a red corundum gemstone and the gem of Surya (Sun) in Vedic tradition. Vedic practice normally starts with a horoscope review by a qualified astrologer before a gemstone is chosen. Tradition attaches meaning to the gem, but no result is promised.

FAQs

How do I choose the weight?

The right weight comes down to budget, how large you want the stone to look and, if you follow astrology, your astrologer's guidance. Some astrologers relate the Ratti weight to body weight; others use different rules, so recommendations vary.

Which planet is Ruby linked to?

In Jyotish, ruby is linked with Surya (Sun).

Should I check with an astrologer first?

Tradition says a gem's suitability depends on the individual horoscope. Consulting first is common practice, and an astrological report is available on Brahmatells.
