Note: Ruby can be one of the highest-priced, among the others coloured gemstone. The quality of rubies has been consistently rising, which breaks the annual auctions record. The value of rubies is determined by slight differences in colour, quality, and treatment, the desirable ruby colour is a pure vibrant red to slightly purplish red. Historically, the term 'pigeon’s blood' is known for the red to slightly purplish or pinkish-red colour of rubies with a soft glowing red fluorescence. These Burmese pigeon blood rubies are usually found in Mogok Myanmar. This colour effect makes Pigeon Blood Red Ruby gemstone desirable and popular. (from Moltenore with thanks).
