Celtic Ruby Ring 1.02 Ct., 14K Yellow Gold

A heart formed of light rests at the center of a whispering band, a 1.02 carat Burmese ruby that glows with the kind of pinkish red that seems to remember the first blush of dawn, a gem cut in a mixed brilliant heart that measures 5.88 by 5.87 by 3.86 millimeters, transparent and alive with fire, its facets finished to an excellent polish. This stone carries an intense color saturation that draws the eye and the heart, and it is very slightly included when viewed at eye level, a natural signature that speaks of origin and authenticity, an honesty only true gems possess. Heat treated to reveal its fullest voice, the ruby sits secure in 18K yellow gold, the warm metal embracing the stone like sunlight around a secret, the delicate shoulders of the ring braided and open, inviting light to pass beneath the heart and set each facet singing. Worn, it moves like a small poem, the rich red reflected against skin, a private sunrise that catches gasps and quiet smiles.

When you hold this ring beside those celebrated in museum galleries and the most admired collections, you will feel its confident kinship with rarities that have inspired legends, the depth of its hue and the clarity of its transmission standing shoulder to shoulder with rubies found in renowned royal jewels and beloved engagement pieces. It is not an imitation of fame, it is the same ancient earth and heat that produced those storied gems, a Burmese ruby with the provenance collectors prize, presented with the care and knowledge of The Natural Ruby Company. In practical terms the color intensity rivals stones that grace high end names, and the transparent nature and very slight inclusions give it a purity and life that many commercial rubies cannot match. Choose this ring for an offering of devotion that is both intimate and majestic, a piece that promises the tenderness of first love and the quiet certainty of forever, a ruby that speaks in the language of sunsets and promises, carried home with the assurance of craftsmanship and provenance from The Natural Ruby Company.
