AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Mix of raw natural minerals

Ruby Tanzanite Ethiopian Opal

Ruby is the name given to the red variety of the mineral corundum. Because of the small amounts of chromium, the red hue of these crystals ranges from deep violet to intense blood red. The gem is a very hard crystal, which makes it ideal for use as a gemstone. The name comes from the Latin "rubeus," meaning "red."

The "ruby lapis lazuli" is one of the rarest and therefore most precious gems. Diamond, emerald, sapphire, and ruby are known as the "Big Four" of the gemstone world. The ruby is undoubtedly the fiery, capricious diva of the quartet.

In ancient times, the ruby was considered the mother of all gemstones. Hildegard of Bingen used its healing powers to treat pain and fever. It was believed that color changes in the stone were a omen of plague.

Once the ruby was the stone of kings and nobles. It was said to grant vitality to the wearer and allow them to enjoy life to the fullest.
