4 ct. Pigeon's Blood Ruby, photo by Van Pelt
The best rubies from Burma have long been designated as Pigeon’s Blood red, a rather poetic descriptive term that has come to be an actual grading term, signifying the most sought after color in ruby. Below are photos of some other Pigeon’s Blood stones we have known!

In the second of several blogs on the subject, we attempt to describe the color and show several photos of the same 4 ct. stone to illustrate how color display and perceptions can vary.
