A ruby is a precious gemstone renowned for its vivid red color, which symbolizes love, passion, and power. It is a variety of the mineral corundum and gets its rich red hue from the presence of chromium. Here’s an overview of its characteristics:
Key Features
1. Color:
• The most prized rubies are “pigeon blood red,” a deep, vibrant red with a slightly bluish hue.
• The intensity of color greatly affects its value.
2. Hardness:
• Rubies score a 9 on the Mohs scale, making them one of the hardest natural gemstones, second only to diamonds.
3. Clarity:
• High-quality rubies have few inclusions. However, inclusions (known as “silk”) can enhance their appearance by diffusing light.
4. Cut and Shape:
• Rubies are often cut into cushion, oval, or round shapes to maximize brilliance and color.
5. Size and Weight:
• Larger rubies are rare and command higher prices.
Origin and Sources
• Rubies are mined in several regions, with Myanmar (Burma) being the most famous source, known for producing the finest rubies. Other sources include Thailand, Sri Lanka, Mozambique, and Tanzania.
Symbolism and Uses
• Rubies are a traditional birthstone for July and are often associated with royalty and protection.
• They are used in fine jewelry, such as rings, necklaces, and earrings.
Metaphysical Properties
• In folklore, rubies are believed to bring vitality, courage, and prosperity. They are thought to enhance confidence and passion.

Why are users outbidding themselves?
When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a person is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on behalf of the bidder, incrementally increasing the bid up to the maximum to maintain their position as the highest bidder.
When there is an icon indicating 'Automatic Bid', it means our system is actively placing bids for the bidder based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if bidders are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the bidders maximum limit.
