How can I tell if a ruby is Burmese?
Burmese rubies are the most prized rubies in the world because of their brilliant red color. Often known as "pigeon's blood," the rich red of a Burma ruby is one of the first signs of a ruby's identity. Due to their high value, it's important to purchase from a vetted seller to ensure authenticity. On 1stDibs, you’ll find a collection of authentic vintage and contemporary Burmese ruby jewelry from some of the world's top sellers.
