Ruby (Manik) Radiant-Crimson-Red – BTR118

Ruby (Manik) sold as a loose gemstone, so you can choose the weight and the setting yourself.

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 crimson red; 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

Radiant cuts combine a rectangular outline with brilliant-style faceting. 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. Its traditional associations are symbolic, not promises of any result.

Setting and wearing

Set the stone in a ring, pendant or bracelet of your choice. A setting that lets the stone touch the skin is a common choice, along with the day, finger and metal an astrologer recommends.

Care

Give it an occasional wipe with a soft, dry cloth. It is a fairly durable stone, but still keep it away from perfume, hairspray and hard knocks.

Gifting

A gemstone can be a meaningful gift for a birthday, a milestone or an astrology-minded family member, ideally chosen with their chart in mind.

Each gem has its own shade, clarity and inclusions; a small difference from the photos is to be expected. Colour can also look different under daylight and indoor light. This page does not show certificate or treatment details; ask us before ordering if you need a lab report.

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. A common rule of thumb in gemstone astrology is a weight in Ratti that relates to body weight, but recommendations differ between astrologers.

Should I check with an astrologer first?

Gemstone astrology suggests that suitability depends on your horoscope. Most wearers check with an astrologer beforehand; a report can be booked on Brahmatells.

Is there a lab certificate?
