Few gemstones can rival the fiery elegance of a ruby. Known as the “King of Gemstones,” rubies have fascinated collectors and romantics for centuries — symbolizing love, vitality, and power. But how much are rubies really worth? And what makes one ruby ring sparkle with unmatched brilliance while another costs a fraction of the price?
At JK Store, we believe understanding the true value of ruby jewellery helps you make confident, lasting choices — whether you’re investing in a luxurious ruby necklace, a timeless pair of ruby earrings, or a meaningful ruby engagement ring.
What Determines the Value of a Ruby
The worth of a ruby is shaped by four key factors — color, clarity, cut, and carat weight — along with its origin and craftsmanship.
Color: The Heart of Every Ruby
Color is the most important factor. The finest rubies display a deep, vivid red tone with subtle hints of blue — famously known as “pigeon blood red.” This color embodies passion and rarity, commanding premium prices in the global gemstone market.
At JK Store, we source rubies from Burma (Myanmar) and Mozambique, renowned for their rich, natural hues. Each stone is hand-selected to ensure your ruby ring jewelry captures that iconic, mesmerizing glow.
Clarity: The Natural Signature
Almost every natural ruby has small inclusions — proof of its formation deep within the earth. However, clarity still affects beauty and value. Rubies with fewer visible inclusions allow light to pass freely, resulting in stronger brilliance.
When you purchase a ruby ring or ruby and diamond ring from JK Store, you receive a gemstone that has been carefully evaluated for its clarity and authenticity — complete with documentation and certification
Cut: Bringing Fire to Life
A ruby’s cut determines how light dances within the stone. A well-cut ruby reflects light evenly, showcasing its inner fire.
JK Store’s master jewellers skillfully cut each stone to maximize radiance — ensuring your ruby rings and ruby earrings shine from every angle.
Carat Weight: Rarity in Size
Large rubies are exceptionally rare. Unlike diamonds, where size is common, rubies of high carat weight often come from limited deposits. A small, vivid ruby can be more valuable than a large one with dull color.
That’s why at JK Store, you’ll find a carefully curated balance of size, color, and brilliance across our ruby jewellery range — from delicate ruby necklaces to bold statement rings.
Origin and Craftsmanship
Rubies from Burma (Myanmar) and Mozambique are among the world’s finest, prized for their intense saturation and transparency. But the gem’s journey doesn’t end there — expert craftsmanship transforms it into a masterpiece.
At JK Store, every ruby ring, ruby necklace, and ruby engagement ring is crafted in 18 K gold or platinum, combining superior materials with meticulous artistry.
How Much Is a Ruby Worth
Prices for natural rubies can range from $1,000 to over $10,000 per carat, depending on quality. Exceptional stones — particularly pigeon blood rubies — can command far higher prices, often exceeding $50,000 per carat at auction.
However, JK Store believes luxury should also be accessible. Our ruby and diamond rings and ruby necklaces are designed to offer premium craftsmanship and gemstone quality at fair, transparent prices.
You can find beautiful, certified rubies in our collection starting from under $1,000, while high-grade collector pieces may reach several thousand — reflecting their rarity and superior artistry.
Ruby and Diamond Ring — Where Passion Meets Power
There’s jewellery, and then there’s a ruby and diamond ring — a declaration of strength, romance, and individuality. The deep red of the ruby speaks of passion; the icy brilliance of diamonds adds contrast and clarity — together, they form a visual heartbeat.
At JK Store, this combination becomes art. Each ruby and diamond ring is handcrafted in 18 K gold or platinum, balancing fire and light in perfect harmony. The rubies are sourced from Burma and Mozambique, chosen for their rare saturation, then set beside precision-cut diamonds for an unforgettable finish.
Ruby as an Engagement Ring: A Symbol of Love and Strength
More couples today are choosing ruby engagement rings as vibrant, meaningful alternatives to traditional diamonds. The deep red hue symbolizes eternal love and fiery passion — making a ruby proposal ring a stunning statement of individuality.
JK Store’s ruby as engagement ring designs combine timeless romance with modern sophistication — blending ethically sourced rubies with sparkling diamonds in finely crafted settings.
Ruby Necklace — The Elegance That Defines You
Unlike any other jewel, a ruby necklace draws attention not through brilliance alone, but through presence. Resting gracefully at the heart, it carries emotion, warmth, and quiet power.
At JK Store, each ruby necklace is designed to move with light — delicate yet commanding. The rubies’ vivid hue contrasts perfectly with 18 K gold or platinum, enhancing your neckline with a royal glow. Whether layered over silk or paired with an evening gown, it whispers sophistication without ever trying too hard.
Ruby Earrings — The Spark That Dances with You
Where necklaces express grace, ruby earrings express energy. Each movement catches light and emotion — a spark of red fire that frames the face and draws every gaze.
JK Store’s ruby earrings are crafted to highlight natural brilliance in motion. From minimalist ruby studs for everyday allure to statement drop designs for formal moments, every pair is meticulously balanced for comfort and radiance.
