Mine is pinkish and in all honesty I wouldn't put a ruby one on a boy :D (although a friend of mine has one for her son)

I've known people to put tanzanite on boys and thats more girly if you ask me, buy it and if its too girly sell it too me, its a good exuse for me to buy one, lol, I do want one but I've spent £80 on nappies today, they were very special nappies tho!

the 'fire opal' in the link looks more like a ruby to me, my fire opals are very amber/yellow/orange and my rubys are red/orange/cerise/dark pinky

the fire opals are lovely! as are the emerald and sapphire. My tanzanite ones are both very different in that 1 of them has hot pink in it and the other is just very purply.

If I'm honest I agree with Jan, but she insisted it was fire opal! My tanaznites are also very different, but I think that's just the way with the mottled minkees! You could get a Ruby that was very pinky, or one that was very reddy orange!

Jan your tanzanite with hot pink in it sounds lush!!!!!!

I really like the ruby but asked the same question a while ago about putting it on a boy and most people thought no. But like a couple of you have said, I think they vary. My Fire Opal is very purpley and I will happily put it on Ben.
