Ruby Circlet
The Ruby Circlet is a returning piece of jewelry in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, and this headpiece can be a lifesaver when you venture into more frigid areas of Hyrule because it improves your Cold Resistance. Though the Ruby Circlet will always be found within Gerudo Town, its location varies slightly depending on your Main Story progression. The Ruby Circlet is an individual Armor that lacks a matching set, and though it can be upgraded, it cannot be dyed.
In this Tears of the Kingdom guide, you'll learn where to purchase the Ruby Circlet and find details about its stats and bonuses.

- Description: "A headpiece made by Gerudo craft workers. It's set with a ruby, a gem that harnesses the power of fire to make cold climates more bearable".

Where to Buy the Ruby Circlet
- Coordinates: -3872, -2961, 0033
During your first visit to Gerudo Town, the Ruby Circlet can be purchased in the underground Gerudo Shelter for 1,300 Rupees. Unfortunately, you'll need to sneak into the shelter to buy it. To enter the Gerudo Shelter, you have two options.
The first option is to dive into one of the stained glass-covered chutes around town and follow the floating messages in a bottle until you find the rope-tied vase pictured above. Stand on the ledge near the rope-tied vase, then use Ascend to infiltrate the shelter and frighten some locals.

The second method to sneak into the Gerudo Shelter is to explore the western corner of Gerudo Town to find the classroom beside the stairs. Use Ultrahand to move the desk at the front of the classroom, then jump into the revealed hole to infiltrate the shelter. After some dialogue, you can freely explore the shelter and purchase the Ruby Circlet.

After completing the Main Quest, Riju of Gerudo Town, and getting rid of the sand shroud, the Ruby Circlet will no longer be sold in the underground bunker and is instead sold at the Gerudo Town jewelry shop, Starlight Memories, for the same price of 1,300 Rupees.
