Ruby Set LE1 Fountain Pen

Since ancient times the brilliant red of the ruby has symbolised fire and blood and is thus associated with heat and vitality. Therefore, like no other precious stone, the ruby is regarded as the most perfect expression of passion of love. In Indian culture rubies were prized as the most precious of all gemstones: 'Ratnaraj', the Sanskrit word for ruby, means 'king of precious stones'. Even today they adorn the crowned heads of the Western world. The gleaming red of rubies is an essential part of the emblem and crown jewels of almost all the world's major royal houses.
