Faceted Ruby Ring in Sterling Silver A .925 sterling silver ring featuring a faceted Ruby cabochon in a simple bezel setting. The stone displays deep pink to red tones with natural clarity. Ruby is often chosen for its connection to passion, vitality and courage. It’s a stone people reach for when seeking confidence, inner strength, or reconnecting with their sense of purpose and personal power. Ruby has been treasured throughout history as one of the most valuable gemstones. Known as the “king of precious stones” in ancient Sanskrit texts, it was worn by royalty and warriors who believed it offered protection and invincibility in battle. Part of the Corundum family, Ruby gets its red colour from trace amounts of chromium. It forms deep within the Earth under extreme heat and pressure, with a Mohs hardness of 9, making it one of the hardest gemstones. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. The sterling silver can be polished with a silver cloth. A one-off natural gemstone piece for those drawn to vibrant red stones with depth and presence. Exclusively available in a US size 7, with an internal diameter of 17.15 mm. Not sure of your ring size? Find out here.
