Square Emerald 1.05 Ct "UNHEATED" Pigeon Blood Red Ruby

The term “Pigeon Blood” is believed to have originated in Burma (now Myanmar), where locals used the word “ko-twe” to describe the most vivid and highly prized rubies — those with a deep, pure red hue reminiscent of fresh pigeon’s blood. Some gem historians also suggest that the name refers to the intense red seen at the center of a pigeon’s eye, symbolizing the ideal color of a perfect ruby.
