The Beautiful and Rare: The Burma Ruby

Burma, also known as Myanmar, has been the source of some of the world's finest rubies for centuries. Burmese rubies are famed for their strong and vibrant colour, making them the most desired of all!

Every mine produces a wide range of quality. The fact that a ruby comes from a famous mine doesn’t mean it is good quality... But fine-quality rubies that have Myanmar (Burmese) origin definitely are.

This for example: Edwardian Burma Ruby Cabochon & Diamond Cluster Ring

This beautiful oval shaped Burma ruby cabochon takes centre stage of this amazing cluster ring. The ruby weighs 3.3 carats and looks amazing in both daylight and iridescent light, with a rich and intense colour. The stone is complemented by a cluster of sparkly old cut diamonds, set in a way that creates great movement and placing the ruby to centre stage.

What are the different origins of ruby gemstone?

Ruby, the fiery king of gemstones, boasts a rich history and diverse origins. Here's an exploration of the captivating corners of the world where these precious stones are unearthed:

The Classic Source: Myanmar (Burma): For centuries, Myanmar (formerly Burma) has been the benchmark for rubies. The Mogok Valley, nestled in the country's northern mountains, is legendary. Geological conditions there created exceptional rubies known for their intense color saturation, purity, and a coveted "pigeon blood" red hue. While political unrest has limited access to these mines in recent years, some exceptional stones still emerge from this region.

The Rise of African Rubies: Africa has become a major player in the ruby market. Mines in Mozambique, Madagascar, and Tanzania are yielding impressive stones. These rubies can display a vibrant red color with a slight orange or purple undertone, distinct from the Burmese rubies. The African ruby market is known for its excellent clarity and larger gem sizes.

Asian Ruby Treasures: Beyond Myanmar, Asia boasts other ruby sources. Thailand, particularly the Chanthaburi province, has a long history of ruby mining. These Thai rubies often have a darker, more brownish-red hue compared to their Burmese counterparts. Sri Lanka, known for its sapphires, also produces some rubies, with a slightly pinkish tinge.

Beyond the Usual Suspects: Rubies can also be found in less common locations like Afghanistan, Pakistan, and even North Carolina in the United States. These regions typically produce smaller quantities of rubies, and the quality can vary.

Unearthing the Perfect Ruby: The origin of a ruby can influence its value and characteristics. Burmese rubies, with their legendary quality and limited availability, often command a premium price. African rubies offer a compelling alternative with their vibrant color and larger sizes.

jeweler headcanons

now that i've posted my jeweler translations i wanna post my headcanonssss

The stories don't really have a lot of substance to them. Basically they travel through portals called GATEs and it seems like it's for the purpose of traveling to alternate universes where the objective is just to give each Totoko of each universe a pretty gem. They run a shop together in a back alley of Akatsuka ward.

However the Hesokuri canon is kind of nothing and gems and minerals have been a huge interest of mine for months soooo I wanted to expand on that

Osomatsu

He’s got a loupe in his attack art which i think is soooo cute but there’s like a 7/10 chance he would scam you I think. Now there’s a chance he’s just looking through the loupe to make it seem like he knows what he’s doing and he’s bullshitting you but I prefer to think he actually does know his shit and knows what he’s talking about and how to spot a real gem bc ummmm it’s hotter that way.

In my heart I want him to be an honest, trustworthy man. I want to tell you you're safe buying things from him but it's osomatsu......

HOWEVER I think if he does sell fakes, he does have quite a few of them. A lot of glass filled rubies that he sells at the full price of a genuine Burma ruby, imitations and synthetics that are not disclosed as such, and he also doesn’t usually disclose any treatments. Although I don’t think his standards are Quite so low that he’d sell straight glass. But if you give him a good gem to appraise he’ll try to buy it at a lower price and sell it at a hell of a markup. Perhaps the real, high quality gems are only saved for Totoko?

He’s got the charisma to trick a lot of people into buying something that is not worth nearly as much money as he’s asking for, and is probably smart enough to be able to tell when a buyer knows their shit and when he can and can’t get away with bullshitting them. Probably makes conversation first to get a feel of how much you know.

Obviously he still takes on that "leader" role among the brothers. Like they all own the shop but maybe if you ask for the manager, he's the one that'll show up?

Mostly sells faceted gems that are not yet set in jewelry. Doesn't have any rough stones or mineral specimens, and might carry jewelry sometimes, but not much.

Will sell to anyone, but I think his clientele is usually like, the casual jewelry/gem consumer. Doesn't appeal to mineral collectors very much, and will sometimes sell to very very rich people but not often.

It's also shown in the story and his art that he will just shove the gems in his bag carelessly. No wrapping or special packaging, I guess he just throws them in there (which can cause scratches, fractures, and breakages among gems, especially of varying hardnesses)

The gems mentioned in the story are emotites, originally from Pazzmatsu, but I think he also deals mostly in red gems, particularly rubies, but of course he's got stuff like spinels, fancy sapphires, tourmalines, etc

Karamatsu

His attack shows that he only has jewelry, but it's jewelry made of all different types of gems so he may not focus on one particular type like Osomatsu. It also seems to be very big, extravagant statement pieces. In the story he's also shown at what looks like very expensive rich people parties, so while Osomatsu is more geared towards selling to the general public, Karamatsu may specialize in very very rich customers. Also explains why he's dressed so well lol my mans so put together.......

His personal favorite is probably sapphires, or some other blue stone. PERSONALLY. I think his favorites are specifically star sapphires. look at these

I think he’s honest enough that he’s the most reputable of the six to buy from. I think he’s about as skilled as Osomatsu, if not more, when it comes to identifying and appraising gems, but he’s not Perfect so he’s bound to make mistakes and maybe there’s some misidentified things in the mix. But I think he’s like 2/10 most likely to scam you. If you get something you didn’t expect he probably just genuinely didn’t know lmao he somehow doesn’t look as shady as the rest of them so I think he’s probably involved in reputable circles, sells to people that know their shit and doesn’t try to prey on those that don’t know anything.

He also properly packages and cares for his gems, he's not careless like Osomatsu. Also probably something required of him if he's going to be selling to a very wealthy clientele

Choromatsu

This guy will fucking scam you he is going to tell you shit that just straight up isn’t true. 9/10 chance you are not getting what you asked for. I went to a gem show in may with my friend and I saw a ‘gem’ that looked like fordite - which is tumbled paint scraped off the bottom of ford car factories. Very pretty but absolutely not a real gem, it's paint. I held it up and asked what it was - expecting the answer to be fordite - and he said some other name that I forgot but upon googling it its basically the same thing as fordite and this mfer said “and that’s naturally occurring!” do you think I am fucking stupid. anyway that’s the shit jeweler choromatsu tells you.

In the story and his art he's shown selling amulets of some sort, and he tries to sell one to Dekapan that's meant to increase libido and claims it's got something to do with cavemen. Despite him only being shown selling amulets, I do think he has small specimens and loose stones. just for me

look hes such a FREAKKKKKKK i need him bad

He does Have real gems in his collection, but you can’t trust anything he says about them. He’ll try to pass off any fucking green thing as emerald yes he will sell straight glass. It’s a grab bag of anything. He tells some kind of made up story about the history of it, usually full of some kind of mysticism and what it could bring you. He knows a bit about how to identify a real gem but isn't as skilled as his older brothers.

He also seems at least a little disorganized, what with the amulets hanging on the inside of his jacket and all. It's a system that's organized enough at least that someone unfamiliar could figure it out, but it's also a little bit of like "I know where everything is" kind of a deal

Ichimatsu

His art makes it look like he digs up his gems himself, just cause the gloves and backpack and hat and map makes me think he's out in the field and stuff

The umbrella and blanket sale in his attack art also makes me feel like he’s not As shady as choro but is probably trying to sell them as like “this stone will cure your anxiety” type stuff.

His items are most likely genuine but overpriced. I get the vibe that maybe he digs a portion of his stuff out of the ground himself and is more of a traveling salesman kind of a thing. So part of the stuff he sells is stuff he dug up and cleaned himself and some is stock that he bought from others. But because of this, he's decently good at identifying more common minerals, like the kind you'd find at these spiritual shops. Maybe not that great with rarer minerals, though.

Most of his stuff is likely rough pieces, although I'm sure he has polished points, worry stones, those things carved like hearts.

6/10 likely to scam you just based on the fact that a 2 inch chunk of low quality amethyst is not worth $30 fuck off. he’s essentially the same as any overpriced metaphysical spiritual shop that sells crystals in the shape of penises for $20

I think he does know his shit in terms of scientific information, but he's selling them on the basis of like crystal healing and shit. He also doesn't know that much about crystal healing though he makes up the meanings whenever you ask

Jyushimatsu

the big bag and devious hat and cloak makes me think he stole that shit lmao

He looks like he has a citrine geode in his attack (natural citrine is actually quite rare, a lot of citrine on the market is heat treated amethyst) also it's fucking HUGE so it would be pretty expensive.

I get the vibe that maybe he steals expensive shit like big statement pieces? I don't know. I dont know ......

In the story it seems like he can appreciate both rough and polished stones. He might lean a little more towards rough specimens, but it sounds like he's quite happy with either one

As a salesman I think he's a bit more trustworthy as well? He was trying to sell something to Hatabou in the story but in his own Jyushimatsu way I have trouble truly understanding him.....

Todomatsu

His art and costume makes him look very well traveled, I like to think that he mainly collects rough mineral specimens, usually very rare and expensive collector's minerals. He's got the super niche expensive stuff that the average person doesn't know but that collectors would pay thousands of dollars for. In the story he also mentions picking something up from a mining location, which tells me he's taking shit that's coming straight out of the ground rather than stuff that's already been processed in some way.

Very very knowledgable about his stuff. His clientele is also very niche, like Karamatsu's, because the main people interested in his stuff would be people that are already into mineral collecting.

He's less likely to scam you solely because the people he sells to are usually skilled enough to be able to tell the difference between something real or fake, or an imitation. He has a reputation to uphold, so he can't risk ruining that.

KING FRANÇOIS I BOOK OF HOURS (1578)

A dazzling masterpiece of the French Renaissance.

This small prayer book is bound in enamelled gold and gemstones. It was purchased in 1538 by King Francis I of France as a gift for his niece. The gems consist of carnelian (two intaglios and eight cameos), rubies (27 polished pieces), turquoise (24 cabochons) and rhodolite (one faceted stone in the book’s clasp that has been described as tourmaline since 1942). Most of the rubies were mined from the Mogok area of Burma (now Myanmar). Based on historical considerations, the turquoise could have originated from Persia or possibly Uzbekistan, and the carnelian from either India or Saxony. The faceted rhodolite from India or Sri Lanka, was most likely added to the clasp between 1842 and 1884. [view large]

Crystal Healing and Lore of Ruby (A Dive Into The Stone Of Power And Kings)

The history of ruby is extremely complex and goes back thousands of years. The name Ruby comes from the Latin “Rubinus” which means red. It has been said to ward off the effects of poison in medieval times, and when worn or carried by a king it was also said to make that king invincible. Ruby has so many superstitions connected to it, but how does that affect the modern way we look at this precious gemstone? Especially in crystal healing practices, ruby is a potent stone of vitality, and healing. Some say that although it doesn’t truly live up to the old superstitions of warding off death and disaster, it certainly has a protective and empowering energy. Ruby is actually from the same “family” as sapphire, and pink sapphire and ruby are often used interchangeably by sellers depending on their target audience. This “family” that ruby and sapphire are both a part of is called “Corundum”. The most precious variety of red corundum (ruby) is known as pigeons blood ruby and often comes from Burma. Burmese rubies are rare and sought after by many.

SO; How can you use ruby in your healing practice today? First off, you may already own a piece of ruby in your jewelry collection. Small pieces are no less powerful than palm stones or statement pieces, so don’t be intimidated to meditate with ruby stud earrings on, or a small tumbled piece. You can use ruby for a variety of purposes: boosting fiery energy, working with Archangel Michael (who is often associated with this stone as well as lapis lazuli), healing ego and emotional wounds from your past (maybe take a piece of ruby or ruby jewelry to therapy), and meditating on protective and empowering themes in your life.

THINGS TO LOOK OUT FOR WHEN PURCHASING RUBY:

1. HONEYCOMB RUBY. This is becoming a common fake for ruby, and is just chemically identical to ruby while being man grown and structured weirdly. It looks like this:

2. RED SPINEL AS RUBY. Red spinel has fooled the best of us, even professionals in the past and is often marketed as ruby. Even the Crown Jewels are not technically ruby and are instead red spinel. These crystals are formed completely differently, but look similar in color. However, a way to discern whether you have red spinel or ruby is to hold it up to the light. If its got more than one shade of red its more likely to be ruby. If it’s a single shade of red and lacks that pinkish depth it could be red spinel. There is nothing wrong with red spinel, it’s just probably not what you want when shopping for genuine rubies. Another difference is the density. Ruby feels heavier in your hand than red spinel, although this can be hard to tell with small pieces or faceted jewelry.

3. GLASS. This goes without saying, ruby is harder than glass, as it is corundum. If you have something that is less than a 7 on the Mohs scale of hardness and it can scratch your “ruby” then that is no ruby. It may very well be glass.

Old Burma Ruby vs New Burma Ruby: A Comparative Guide

Knowing these differences assists you in purchasing ruby jewelry without regret.
