During July, we pay tribute to this special stone as ruby is the traditional birthstone for July.
STRUCTURE
Rubies are a variety of the mineral called corundum and the line between pink sapphires and rubies is based on color rather than composition. Rubies have a Trigonal structure and the chemical name is Aluminum Oxide. The hardness of a ruby is a 9 on the Mohs scale.
SHAPE
Rubies can be cut into a variety of different shapes, but brilliant-cut and cabochon, also known as star rubies, are two of the most prized cuts for this fabulous, rare stone.
COLOR
Rubies are red and luscious, alive, and mysterious. From their deep color comes the associations and symbolism associated with this gem. Rubies represent power and love. They also represent passion and energy. According to Bishop Marbodius from the eleventh century, "Ruby is the solitary and glowing eye which dragons and wyverns carry in the middle of their foreheads."
Have you ever wondered where the tradition of associating a certain birthstone with your birth month was born? Birthstones and their association to the Zodiac extend back to the twelve stones used in Arron's breastplate mentioned in Exodus. However, the tradition probably dates back even further. Adopted and further codified by Christians and related to a passage in Revelation; the association of birthstones with birth months continues in the West up to modern times. There are textual references to the association of certain stones with certain birth months from eighth-century Poland and sixteenth-century Germany. Exactly which stone represents which month was further refined by Tiffany & Co in the 1870s and then by JA in 1912. For centuries stones have been associated with healing powers, luck, and power and this is another reason birthstones are popular.
