Did you know that ruby is always red? It belongs to the corundum family, whose blue variety (or any color other than red) is called sapphire.

However, there are many shades of red: pigeon's blood red, raspberry red, burgundy red, orange red...

Che "pigeon's blood" ruby is the most sought-after for its deep, intense red. The finest and rarest come from Burma's famous Mogok Valley.
