Original Anari Ruby

Anari Ruby takes its name from anar, the Urdu word for pomegranate — a deep, pomegranate-red shade of natural ruby that is the most popular everyday ruby in Pakistan. It is an honest, affordable grade of genuine ruby: natural corundum with good colour and visible natural inclusions, cut and polished for rings, pendants and tasbeeh.

What makes it a real ruby

Ruby is the red variety of the mineral corundum. Only red corundum is called ruby — the same mineral in blue, yellow, green or any other colour is a sapphire (see our guide Ruby vs Sapphire). So a genuine Anari Ruby is always red, ranging from pinkish-red to a deep pomegranate red; it is never green, blue or yellow.

Colour, clarity and value

A ruby's value is set by its colour, clarity, cut and carat weight. The most prized shade is the vivid "pigeon-blood" red, which commands a large premium. Anari Ruby sits below that top grade — it offers the true ruby colour at a price that makes it accessible, with the exact weight of this stone listed in the specification table and its price shown above.

Who wears ruby

In Vedic astrology ruby (Yaqoot) is the stone of the Sun and is traditionally recommended for Leo; it is also the birthstone for July. Many people simply wear it for its warm red colour. If you are choosing a stone for astrological reasons, we recommend confirming with a qualified astrologer first — see Gemstones by Zodiac.
