Basically a Mahaleo ruby or glass filled ruby is a low quality ruby. Often the ruby has so many fractures that it appears opaque and brown instead of red. These fractures are then filled with lead glass.
Because of the addition of lead glass the clarity and color are dramatically improved. Creating a valuable looking ruby that in its natural form could not even be cut.
The Problem With Mahaleo RubyUnfortunately there are disadvantages as well. The main one being that it is far more fragile than a real ruby. Taking care of a glass filled ruby is far harder because a simple household cleaning product can already damage it. Let alone a professional cleaning agent.

Is Ruby Thewes from Cold Mountain a real person?
Ruby Thewes is a fictional character in the book "Cold Mountain" by Charles Frazier, but there were, and are, a lot of people very much like her in that part of the world. I highly suggest the non fiction book series "Foxfire" to read true stories of skill, kindness, strength, and occasional prickly common sense very much like Ruby's.
