Natural Raw Ruby Stone – Precious Red Gemstone for Collectors & Jewelry Makers

Ruby is one of the most celebrated and historically valued gemstones in the world. Known as the “King of Precious Stones,” ruby is a red variety of the mineral Corundum, famous for its brilliance, hardness, and exceptional rarity. At Total Gemstones, we supply natural raw ruby stones, ethically sourced and hand-selected for global buyers looking for premium-grade rough gemstones.

With rising demand in the USA and worldwide, natural ruby remains a symbol of luxury, passion, and power — making it a favorite for jewelry, investment, and spiritual use.

What is Ruby Stone?

Ruby is the red-colored variant of Corundum (Aluminum Oxide). The presence of chromium gives ruby its intense red hue and glowing inner fire. Rubies have been treasured for thousands of years and are associated with love, strength, and protection.

Color & Appearance

Color is the most important factor in evaluating ruby. Shades include:

• Pinkish red
  
• Pure red
  
• Deep crimson red
  
• Pigeon blood red (most valuable)
  
• Purplish-red
  
• Brownish-red
  

Natural raw ruby stones may also show hexagonal crystal shapes, inclusions (silk), or natural zoning.

Why Ruby Is a Precious Stone

Ruby is officially classified as one of the four precious gemstones alongside Diamond, Emerald, and Sapphire. Its hardness ranks 9 on the Mohs scale, making it extremely durable for jewelry and long-term use. Because of its rarity—especially in larger sizes—ruby prices are among the highest in the global gemstone market.
