Yaqoot Stone
Yaqoot stone, widely recognized as ruby or Manik Ratna, and as Yaqoot in the Urdu language, is a stunning red color gemstone hailed enormously for its captivating beauty and profound cultural significance. Belonging to the corundum mineral family, it ranks 9 on the Mohs hardness scale, making it one of the hardest gemstones in existence. A Yaqoot gemstone is way too ideal for crafting durable and long-lasting jewelry like rings, necklaces, and pendants. The striking and vibrant color of yaqoot stone, ranging from pinkish-red to the coveted deep "pigeon blood" red, is due to trace amounts of chromium. Historically, yaqoot has adorned royal crowns and talismans, symbolizing love, courage, and authority across cultures, from ancient Persia to modern India.
In Vedic astrology, yaqoot is associated with the king of all planets Sun, believed to enhance confidence, leadership, and vitality, making it particularly beneficial for individuals with Leo as their zodiac sign. It’s also the July birthstone in Western astrology, often gifted for 15th and 40th wedding anniversaries. The stone’s allure is heightened by its rarity, especially for untreated gems from premium origins like Myanmar (Burma).
The actual Price of yaqoot stone depends on color, clarity, cut, carat weight, origin, and treatment. Average quality yaqoot stones price (pinkish-red, moderate inclusions, often heat-treated, typically from Thailand or Madagascar) range from INR 2,000–50,000 per carat ($25–$600). Exceptional quality yaqoot stones (vivid pigeon blood red, minimal inclusions, untreated, Burmese origin) command INR 90,000–5,00,000 per carat ($1,200–$6,000) or higher for rare, large gems. Certification from reputable labs like GIA or IGI is crucial to verify authenticity and quality. Buyers should prioritize untreated stones with vivid color and clarity for immense astrological benefits and investment purposes. Consulting trusted jewelers and ensuring certification enhances confidence in purchasing this timeless gem.

"This place has an incredible selection of gemstones—the best I’ve seen around. It definitely helps if you know what you’re looking for and have some knowledge about gems, but Harsh is great at guiding you to the right choice. I highly recommend this shop for gem shopping! It’s a little off the beaten path, but absolutely worth it. The prices are reasonable for the quality, and they even managed to set the gems I chose into a pendant and ring in less than a day."
