Pendant, or as earrings(click for more information) DETAIL: Much of the ruby reaching early Medieval Europe came from Badakhshan. On the border between present-day Tajikistan and Afghanistan. Marco Polo described visiting these mines in his accounts of his travels. Later Medieval Europe’s rubies came principally from the border region between Burma and Siam(present-day Myanmar and Thailand) In the medie val world rubies were viewed as a stone of prophecy, used by medieval shamans and sorcerers to divine the future. It was believed that wearing ruby would attract good health, wisdom, fortune, and true love. Ruby was also worn as a talisman, as it was believed that the stone darkened when danger was near and then return to its original color when the danger was past. Ruby was also thought to be an antidote to poisoning as well, and to protect the wearer from lightening, plagues, poison, sorrow, and evil spirits. Consequentially rubies were considered even more valuable than diamonds. In Medieval Europe ruby was priced eight times higher than diamond. Celebrating that historical inheritance here's a very beautiful good quality 19th century antique ruby. Hand crafted by a 19th century Russian artisan.
