Halo Ruby Necklace 1.40 Ct., Platinum 950

The centerpiece is a 1.40 carat round Mozambique ruby, measured at 6.82 by 6.77 by 3.24 millimeters, cut in a mixed brilliant style to marry intense face up color with controlled pavilion return. The mixed brilliant architecture employs a brilliant facet arrangement on the crown to maximize fire and scintillation, while a modified pavilion facet set refines light leakage and stabilizes hue saturation, producing a vivid red that reads strongly at all viewing angles. Clarity is evaluated as eye clean at standard viewing distance, and the stone carries an excellent polish that enhances facet crispness and optical depth. Encircling the ruby is a precise halo of white round natural diamonds totaling approximately 0.80 carats, composed of stones graded VS1 and VS2 for clarity, and F for color. These diamonds are well proportioned round brilliants, chosen for consistent table and pavilion relationships to deliver even scintillation and to create a high contrast frame that elevates the ruby color without introducing warmth from the metal.

The entire assembly is fabricated in platinum 950, selected for its high density, hypoallergenic qualities, and long term resistance to deformation, and executed with a combination of precision milling and hand finishing to ensure longevity and refined appearance. The center sits within a low protective bezel finished to allow unobstructed crown entry for light while protecting the girdle, while the surrounding diamonds are hand set in fine prongs to maximize exposure and brilliance, with a ventilated milled basket that preserves light return and reduces weight without sacrificing strength. The result is a floral halo silhouette that reads timeless, adaptable to modern and traditional wardrobes, and designed to remain stylish for decades. The Natural Ruby Company stands behind the material sourcing and craftsmanship, offering a piece that pairs investment grade colored gem quality, exacting diamond complements, and durable platinum construction, suitable for daily wear or for the lasting presentation of a significant occasion.
