Do you know how rubies come from?
The earliest places where rubies were discovered may be ancient India, Myanmar and other Southeast Asian countries. Today, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, Thailand and Cambodia are still famous ruby producing areas in the world. For centuries, gem miners in Myanmar believed that if buried underground, the dull ruby would eventually turn bright red.

Ruby is the most mature one in corundum family. Miners in Sri Lanka believe that the flawed ruby is overripe, and the ancients gave it the hypothesis of life development and growth. From 1534 to 1570, another person named Delta who once lived in India thought that the color of rubies deepened with maturity. From 1582 to 1593, another philosopher (Iinschoten) wrote in his book: "The gem in the rock is white at first, and with the passage of time, the power of the sun makes it perfect and mature into a ruby. If it is dug out before maturity, it will be dull and red. "

Gem-grade ruby is very rare, and it is difficult to see it in the early stage of ruby mining in Myanmar. Therefore, there are not as many rubies as diamonds in history. It is understandable that high-quality rubies are more expensive than diamonds now. It is said that only one or two high-quality rubies larger than 10 carat are occasionally found in Gumu ruby mine in Myanmar, which is very rare. Ruby larger than 10 carat is listed as a national treasure in Myanmar. No one is allowed to smuggle or sell, and offenders will be convicted of a felony. Recently, a large ruby mine was discovered in Lu 'an, Vietnam, which seriously impacted the ruby market. However, the quality of Vietnamese rubies is far less than that of Burmese rubies, especially in color and texture. Ruby mines have also been found in Yunnan, China, but the scale is not large and the quality of rubies is average.

Since ancient times, rubies have always been token of love given by lovers to their lovers. There are many legends about rubies in ancient times. There is a legend that people who wear rubies will live a long and healthy life, be rich, be smart and have a happy love. Wearing a red gem ring on your left hand will have the magic power to turn hostilities into friendship. Ruby itself contains warm meaning, strong and bright, which can give people the courage to face the unknown future!
