Alluring 10x30 mm elongated teardrop rubies, handpicked from India and set in shining gold-fill with delicate wire wrap and secure lever backs. Each earring captures a rich, vibrant red that dances with light, making it perfect for both everyday wear and special occasions. Rubies are vibrant red gemstones made of the mineral corundum. Traces of chromium give the stone its signature color. Renowned for their durability, exceptional rarity, and fiery brilliance, rubies can command higher per-carat prices than almost any other colored gemstone. Unlike diamonds, natural rubies almost always contain small natural inclusions, sometimes called "silk." Flawless, eye-clean stones are exceptionally rare. Historically, Myanmar (formerly Burma) produced the most famous stones. Today, Mozambique is a major source, celebrated for deep, richly saturated reds. The most sought-after and valuable rubies display a pure, vibrant red with a slight undertone of blue or purple, traditionally referred to as "pigeon blood".
