Ruby (Manik) Oval-Blush-Red – BTR119

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 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

Oval cuts are the most versatile shape: they suit rings and pendants and tend to look larger for their weight. Ruby (Manik) is a red corundum gemstone and the gem of Surya (Sun) in Vedic tradition. Traditionally, a qualified astrologer reviews the chart first, since the right gem varies from person to person. The associations are traditional and symbolic, and no outcome is promised.

Gifting

For an astrology-minded friend or family member, a gemstone chosen with their chart in mind is a considered gift.
