Sounds like this one's a topic for the RubyGarden wiki.

I'm happily using wxWindows and GNOME2 with Ruby. Portability to Windows
and MacOS both doesn't leave you many options, though.

FXRuby is on my to-play-with list, but I've not had time yet.

Masao Mutoh and other's work on GTK2/GNOME2 is really impressive.  The
object models are actually somewhat merged, now, in the CVS.  You can
implement GTK objects in Ruby.

As far as I know, the GTK bindings works under win32.  With the Luna
theme installed, it looks XP-like, too, so it merges well with the
system.

Speed is great, with the exception of a heavily loaded GtkTreeView, but
that's GTK and my implementation's fault, I think.

Enjoy.

Ari
