EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back in time to the enchanting Ruby Mines of Mogok Valley in Upper Myanmar (Burma), a place renowned for its rich ruby deposits since ancient times. The image, estimated to date back to the 1910s, showcases a serene settlement nestled amidst the rugged terrain, with traditional Burmese houses scattered across the landscape. The Mogok Valley was, and still is, celebrated as the world's primary source for rubies, producing some of the finest specimens ever discovered. The most coveted Myanmar rubies, with their deep, vibrant red color, are referred to as the 'pigeon's blood' rubies, named for their striking resemblance to the rich hue of a pigeon's blood. However, in recent years, the discovery of high-quality rubies in this region has become increasingly rare. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, where the allure of the ruby mines drew settlers from far and wide, in search of the elusive, precious gems hidden within the earth.
