About Pigeon Blood Ruby – The Fire of the Gem World

Pigeon Blood Ruby is a term used to describe rubies that exhibit a deep, vivid red color with a hint of blue undertone, producing an intense and mesmerizing “blood-like” glow. This unique coloration sets it apart from other rubies and makes it one of the rarest and most valuable gemstones in the world.

Rubies are a variety of the mineral corundum, composed primarily of aluminum oxide with traces of chromium, which gives them their characteristic red color. The Pigeon Blood variety is renowned for its medium to high transparency and a rich red tone that glows even in low light.

With a Mohs hardness of 9, rubies are durable and ideal for fine jewelry and astrological use.

Origin of Pigeon Blood Ruby

The finest Pigeon Blood Rubies are primarily found in a few legendary mining locations:

  • Myanmar (Burma): The most famous source, especially from the Mogok Valley, known historically as the “Valley of Rubies.” Burmese Pigeon Blood Rubies are prized for their unmatched color purity and brilliance.
  • Mozambique: Emerging as a major supplier of high-quality rubies, with rich red hues and excellent clarity.
  • Thailand: Known for darker rubies, often heat-treated to enhance color and clarity.
  • Sri Lanka: Produces rubies with lighter, pinkish-red tones, though some specimens approach Pigeon Blood quality.
  • Madagascar: Provides a growing quantity of fine rubies with good color and clarity.

At ShivRaj Ratna, we prioritize sourcing from Myanmar and Mozambique for their superior quality Pigeon Blood Rubies, ensuring authenticity and astrological potency.
