Description

This ring is set with wonderful gemstones: A natural ruby in rosy red weighing 1.70 ct sparkles in the center of the oval ring face. It is an untreated ruby from Burma, today's Myanmar. Rubies from Burma are among the most precious gemstones of all and their color, unimproved by man and created only by nature, is unique. The ruby is raised slightly above the ring face by a prong setting. It is framed by both white brilliant-cut diamonds and trapeze-cut diamonds. In total, we see 24 diamonds weighing around 1.32 carats, which make the ruby the center of a sparkling star, a cosmic explosion of light. The combination of diamond and ruby complements each other wonderfully in terms of color. However, a look at the history of jewelry also reveals a meaningful gemstone combination, as in the language of gemstones, the ruby was once regarded as the stone of love, while the diamond was seen as a symbol of eternity due to its great hardness. The ring can thus become a wonderful gift of love. The ring from the 1970s was probably created in Germany and came to us from Hesse. It comes with two detailed certificates on the quality of the materials and the origin of the ruby.

Ruby is the red variety of the mineral corundum, to which sapphire also belongs. Really first-class rubies are only found in a few places in the world; the deposits in the town of Mogok in Mynanmar (Burma) are particularly famous.
