Rubies

Coveted are rubies; long symbols of nobility. Their rich deep colors; lend an air of majesty. But rubies hold no claim to fame; though their facets glow. They are not stones for the tame; they’re power stones, in gold.

I love gemstones, especially the brightly-covered ones, so this appeals to me greatly, my friend!
