The pursuit of the finest colored gemstones requires both discerning taste and unwavering expertise a tradition honored by TAKAT Gems SR since 1955.
Originating from a lineage of precious stone craftsmen in the historical city of Jaipur, TAKAT has built a legacy anchored in passion, quality, and trust in the global market. Our commitment is reflected in every gem we offer, from spectacular Diamonds and Sapphires to Loose Round Emerald Gemstone and, most notably, the coveted Pigeon Blood Ruby.
The term "Pigeon's Blood" represents the ultimate benchmark for ruby color, a standard first established in 1996 by the renowned Swiss gemological laboratory, GRS (Gem Research SwissLab).
This grading specifically denotes a rare and highly valued color saturation. We demonstrate our commitment to offering stones that meet this elite classification, such as the important 5.09 carat natural Mozambique ruby examined by GRS.
This particular gem was distinguished by its rarity—being untreated—and its vividly red, “vibrant” color. Analytical testing further traced its origin to the Mozambican mines, which currently produce large and significant rubies. Such high-quality untreated stones are exceptionally rare and represent premier investment potential.
Understanding the dynamics of the market is crucial when considering the pigeon blood ruby price per carat. Ruby prices have recently experienced significant appreciation globally, increasing 10–20%, driven largely by high demand for untreated stones and supply constraints from regions like Myanmar.
While the ruby price in Dubai for natural 1-carat rubies can range between AED 250.00 and 3,000.00, the price of stones with this top-tier color and lack of thermal enhancement is significantly higher, especially given the anticipated 10–12% continued growth for rubies and sapphires through 2026.
TAKAT’s expertise extends across all major colored gems, allowing us to provide transparent pricing and expert consultation across diverse markets.
For instance, authentic premium quality Blue Sapphires (Neelam) are highly valued; the anticipated blue sapphire price per carat for top-tier stones in India in 2025 is expected to range up to ₹50,000.
Similarly, the market for Tanzanite remains strong, with the tanzanite price per carat for cut and polished stones currently spanning $250 to $1000.
Beyond price, our commitment lies in understanding origin and quality. For example, while Colombian emeralds are historically prized, the market recognizes the distinctive features of a quality fancy Zambian emerald, known for its deep green hue with a slight bluish overtone and superior clarity, often presenting fewer visible inclusions than its Colombian counterparts. These stones, whether purchased as an investment or for statement jewelry, require careful certification and appraisal.
Our inventory is carefully curated to meet the highest standards of cutting and clarity. Whether seeking an exquisite loose round emerald or pairing a centerpiece gem with complementary shapes, the cut dictates the final aesthetic.
Step-cut designs, like the classic emerald cut, reveal clarity characteristics more readily than brilliant cuts, necessitating a higher clarity grade—typically VS1 or above—to ensure inclusions remain invisible to the eye.
For bespoke designs, nothing speaks to timeless elegance quite like an emerald diamond with baguettes. The sleek, rectangular emerald cut diamond, characterized by its step-cut facets and flattened corners, pairs perfectly with the slim, rectangular baguette diamonds, which are often utilized as accent or side stones in elegant settings.
By emphasizing the quality of the cut and clarity in these demanding shapes, TAKAT ensures the final piece demonstrates exceptional fire and brilliance, securing their place as enduring luxury investments.
