Natural ruby, the July birthstone, on a design that actually moves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis one is a warm, saturated red, held in a half-bezel so the gold wraps and protects the edge of the stone while leaving the face open to the light. The three diamonds run in a graduated line along the curve, picking up light on the way down to the ruby without pulling focus off it. The whole piece is built around one flowing line, so it sits and swings nicely on the chain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe stones\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRuby:\u003c\/strong\u003e Natural, oval cut, 0.86ct\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiamonds:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 natural round brilliants\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMetal:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9ct yellow gold\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSetting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Half-bezel ruby with a claw-set diamond trio\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChain:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sold separately\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout ruby\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRuby is the red variety of corundum, the same mineral as sapphire, coloured by a trace of chromium in the crystal. That same chromium is what makes a fine ruby seem to almost glow. It sits at 9 on the hardness scale, second only to diamond, which is part of why it has been worn and treasured for thousands of years and stands up so well to everyday wear. The most prized stones show a pure, saturated red, and good natural ruby in a clean colour like this is genuinely hard to come by.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHardness: \u003c\/strong\u003e9 on the Mohs scale\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBirthstone: \u003c\/strong\u003eJuly\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eCome and see it in the cabinet at Craigieburn.
