RUBY RING | 5.33克拉 天然 「莫桑比克赤紅色」未經加熱紅寶石 配 鑽石 戒指

Crimson red is a historically significant color, originally derived from the kermes insect and known for its deep, rich hue with subtle purple undertones. The term “Crimson” traces back to medieval Latin and Arabic roots, symbolizing luxury and nobility across cultures –from Polish aristocracy to Nepal’s national flags. In gemology, the term Crimson Red has gained prominence as a trade term for exceptional rubies.

In 2023, the Gübelin Gem Lab introduced the term “Crimson Red” as a new trademark colour for rubies of intense red colour but with little or no UV fluorescence. This characteristic distinguishes rubies from Pigeon Blood Red rubies, historically from Burma, which exhibit a pronounced fluorescence giving them their signature glow.

“Crimson Red” gives well-deserved recognition to untreated rubies, found beyond the Himalayan metamorphic belt, of exceptional colour and of equally perfect hue, tone and saturation. Only about 1% of Gübelin-tested rubies meet these stringent criteria, emphasizing their rarity.

Beyond gemstones, crimson red remains culturally resonant – evoking passion in art, prestige in academia and courage in military regalia. Its enduring allure, from ancient days to modern jewels, underscores a timeless fascination with this vivid embodiment of red’s most luxurious ideal.

赤紅色是一種具有重要歷史意義的顏色。 其最初從胭脂蟲中提取而成，以其深邃濃郁且隱含紫調的色澤著稱。 “赤紅”一詞源自中世紀拉丁語和阿拉伯文，象徵高貴典雅，從波蘭貴族的衣著到尼泊爾的國旗中均有體現。 而在寶石學中，赤紅色已成為特指頂級紅寶石的專業術語。

2023年，古寶琳寶石鑒定所將“赤紅色”註冊為新的顏色商標，來特指一種新的紅寶石。 這種寶石色澤濃烈，但在紫外線照射下並無或只有極少的螢光反應。 這一特性使其區別於產自緬甸的“鴿血紅”紅寶石——後者因具有明顯的紫外下螢光反應而呈現出獨特的鮮亮光澤。

赤紅色的命名恰當地肯定了這些產自喜馬拉雅變質帶以外的未經處理的紅寶石。 這些寶石不僅色澤出眾，其色相、明度和飽和度也都達到了完美的平衡。 經古寶琳寶石鑒定所檢測的紅寶石中，僅有約1%能滿足這些嚴格的標準，足見其珍貴稀有。

除珠寶領域外，赤紅色在文化層面依然具有广泛影响——在藝術中，它喚起熱忱; 在教育界，它象徵權威; 在軍事服飾中則彰顯了勇氣。 從古代文明到現代珠寶，赤紅色歷久不衰的魅力，印證了人類對紅色理想的永恆追求。
