Pigeon Blood Ruby

Ruby that is not deemed red enough is actually considered a pink sapphire and not a Ruby. Ruby can contains secondary colors such as orange, purple, violet, and pink.

Ruby showing a very vivid crimson color would be deemed the most desirable but also very rare. Pigeon’s blood color is a vivid red color with high intensity and low tone without brown and orange overtones. That is why Pigeon Blood Ruby are considered so valuable.
​
Traditionally, ruby was dominated by Pigeon Blood Ruby from Burma however, in recent years, Pigeon Blood Ruby has been found from Vietnam, Tajikistan, Afghanistan and Madagascar and very recently from Mozambique.
