The heart of the earth beats with a treasure. Such is its rarity that Indians refer to it as "ratnaraj"—the king of gems. Like a sunbeam, it radiates with a burning light. Like a flower fringed with vermilion petals, it fascinates and beguiles.
Made up of 60 unique pieces, the Van Cleef & Arpels' High Jewelry collection Treasure of rubies showcases the beauty and majesty of the rubies. Much sought-after, with their color of burning embers, rubies of exceptional quality are often even rarer than diamonds.
