Ruby - Contemporary Gemstone Study

50cm height, Oil on Board

Description:

This commanding 50cm oil painting captures the legendary allure of a step-cut ruby with extraordinary precision. The artist's masterful interpretation brings to life the gem's fabled 'pigeon blood' coloring through a sophisticated array of crimsons, garnets, and deep rose hues. The emerald cut's characteristic linear facet pattern creates a mesmerizing architectural quality, while subtle variations in tone suggest the stone's natural fluorescence and inner fire.

This piece transforms the traditional symbolism of ruby - passion, power, and prosperity - into a contemporary geometric abstraction. Its precise angular composition paired with the depth and intensity of its color palette makes it an arresting focal point that brings sophisticated drama to any curated space.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
