Aamir Khan Presents Bespoke Madagascar Ruby at Private Mumbai Wedding

QWEEN says the cabochon Madagascar ruby took about three months to source and more than 256 hours by 131 artisans to craft, signaling an heirloom-focused choice and a departure from diamond tradition.

Overview

  • The couple held an intimate, family-only wedding at Aamir Khan’s Bandra/Pali Hill residence on July 5, with close friends and their children present.
  • Aamir commissioned Mumbai-based luxury jeweller QWEEN to make a bespoke wedding ring for Gauri Spratt featuring a natural cabochon-cut ruby from Madagascar.
  • QWEEN and its CEO Amit Kumar say sourcing the Madagascar ruby took roughly three months and the finished piece required over 256 hours of work by 131 pairs of artisans.
  • The ring is set in a crown-like gold coronet with milgrain detailing and about 40 accent diamonds, a design framed by the maker as a vintage, heirloom-style piece.
  • The choice reflects a personal, non-traditional approach—Aamir is a strategic investor in QWEEN and previously commissioned a rare Brazilian aquamarine for Gauri—while underscoring the cultural cachet and market interest in rare colored gemstones over conventional diamonds.
