About Ruby
Ruby is the red gem variety of corundum, coloured by chromium replacing a small fraction of the aluminium in its structure. The same chromium that produces the red also causes fluorescence, which can make fine ruby appear to glow in sunlight. Stones too light in tone are classed as pink sapphire. You can read more via gemmological reference, mineral data.
Ruby forms in marbles produced where limestone is metamorphosed, and in basalt-hosted deposits. The chromium needed for red is rarely found alongside aluminium in nature, which is a large part of why fine ruby is scarcer than most other coloured gems.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size is this ring?
This is a standard ring size. Because each piece is handmade, message us before ordering with the size you need and we will confirm what we can do.
How does this metal hold up to everyday wear?
Silver develops a characteristic patina over time with regular friction against the skin and surfaces. You can easily polish it back to a bright shine using a soft cloth whenever you prefer a cleaner look.
Is ruby hard enough for daily ring wear?
Ruby sits very high on the Mohs scale, making it one of the toughest gemstones available for jewellery. It resists scratching from most household dust and materials, allowing you to wear it frequently without worry.
What should I wear this ring with?
The deep red hue of the centre stone complements neutral tones like black, grey, and crisp white, as well as warm earth colours. It works equally well as a standalone statement piece or stacked alongside slim silver bands.
How do I clean the gemstone safely?
Wash the ring gently in warm soapy water using a soft-bristled brush to remove any accumulated oils from daily wear. Rinse thoroughly under clean running water and dry with a lint-free cloth.
How long does delivery take, and can I return it?
We contact you directly as soon as your order is placed to arrange delivery, so you always know where the parcel is. Returns are accepted within 7 days of the date you receive the item.
Are your stones natural, or are any of them synthetic?
Everything we sell is 100% natural. We do not deal in synthetic or laboratory-grown material, and we do not hide anything about a piece: the photographs are shot to show every detail, including the ones a seller might prefer you did not see.
Is the ring in the photographs the one I receive?
Yes. Every piece is handmade individually and photographed before listing, so what you see is the ring that will be sent.
