July is the month of the ruby. To celebrate the ruby we have an exquisite collection of ruby jewellery from our very own workshop and from around the world on display at our New Lynn showroom.
The ruby is not only a birthstone, but it is also a popular gemstone for cocktail rings and an alternative to a diamond for engagement rings. The fiery red hues of a ruby are a symbol of passion and love. The ruby is a 9 on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness, making it the hardest gemstone after diamond. With good care, your ruby jewellery should have a long lifespan.
Consider one of these pieces for your next purchase:
An 18k Yellow Gold Ring with a 2.6ct Burmese Ruby and a .25ct heart shaped diamond on either side, or perhaps an 18k Yellow Gold Marquise Cut Ruby and Diamond Ring.
