Celebrated in the Bible and in ancient Sanskrit writings as the most precious of all gemstones, It has been the prized possession of emperors and kings throughout the ages.Ruby has been the world's most valued gemstone for thousands of years. Ruby was said to be the most precious of the twelve stones God created when he created all things and this "lord of gems" was placed on Aaron's neck by God's command. The bible says that wisdom is "more precious than rubies," that is to say very valuable indeed. In the ancient language of Sanskrit, ruby is called ratnaraj, or "king of precious stones" and ratnanayaka, "leader of precious stones." In fact, rubies are today still more valuable and rare than even the top quality colorless diamonds. Ruby is the usual name for transparent red corundum. Corundum is the mineralogical name for aluminium oxide.Corundum can be colourless,pink, red, black, brown, orange, yellow, green, indigo, violet, or mauve. Red corundum and most pink corundum is called ruby, all other colours are called sapphire, usually with the colour specified as a prefix to the word ruby, for example, yellow sapphire. The International Colored Gemstone Association passed a resolution that the light shades of the red hue be included in the category Ruby since it was too difficult to legislate where red ended and pink began. In practice, pink shades are now known either as Pink Ruby or Pink Sapphire. Ruby was the first mineral to be produced by commercial Gem synthesis and dates to the 1880's. Many customers have brought family heirlooms for insurance only to be told that their "Gem" is not a natural stone, so just because it's old doesn't mean it's the real thing.
