Laughing Cat

Pigeon blood rubies are considered the finest and most valuable type of ruby in the world. The term refers to a vivid, pure red colour with a slight bluish undertone—resembling the rich red of a pigeon’s arterial blood.

A symbol of luck and fortune, each Laughing Cat is set with premium-quality emeralds and “pigeon blood” rubies. The pairing of two of the world’s most prized gemstones has long been favoured in fine jewellery for its balance of richness and drama. In European folklore, emeralds were believed to soothe the eyes and even restore sight, while in parts of Southeast Asia rubies were once placed beneath the skin by warriors who believed the stones would grant them strength and protection in war.
