Detail of the Timur ruby from a painting of Maharaja Sher Singh of the Sikh Empire, by August Schoefft, c. 1841–42
The Timur Ruby (also Khiraj-i-alam, "Tribute to the World") is an unfaceted, 352.54-carat (71 g) polished red spinel set in a necklace.[1] It is named after the ruler Timur,[2] founder of the Timurid Empire and purportedly one of its former owners. It was believed to be a ruby until 1851.
It is inscribed with the titles of five of its previous owners: Jahangir (who also had the name of his father Akbar the Great inscribed), Shah Jahan, Farrukhsiyar, Nader Shah and Ahmad Shah Durrani.[3][4]
Since 1612, the owners of the Timur ruby have also owned the Koh-i-Noor diamond. It has been in the possessions of the Safavid, Mughal, Sikh and British empires, and is currently part of the Royal Collection.
