Ruby material Artificial corundum for gem oringinal material Pink red

Short Description:

Ruby isa precious gemstone composed of the mineral corundum. It gets its red color from the presence of the element chromium. Ruby is a form of aluminum oxide (Al2O3) and belongs to the same family as sapphire, which is also a type of corundum. It is one of the hardest gemstones, with a hardness of 9 on the Mohs scale, just below diamonds. The quality and value of ruby are determined by factors such as color, clarity, cut, and carat weight. Ruby is often used in jewelry, especially in engagement rings, necklaces, and bracelets, symbolizing love, passion, and strength. It is also considered the birthstone for the month of July. Additionally, ruby has some industrial applications, particularly in lasers, watches, and scientific instruments.
