They graduate in size toward the centre and range from 0.25ct to 0.70ct, making a grand total of approx. 2.2ct total. Ruby is the birthstone of July. They’ve been a favourite of kings and emperors throughout history and are considered a stone of the heart. Its fiery pink/ red hue is symbolic of passion and said to bring good fortune in love and provide long-lasting happiness and vitality to any relationship.
