Durability is a top concern when choosing a gemstone for daily wear, and rubies are among the best choices for long term use. With a Mohs hardness of nine, rubies resist scratching from nearly all materials except diamond, and the dense crystal structure also grants good toughness against everyday knocks. The emerald cut of this 1.04 carat ruby further reduces vulnerability by presenting broad flat facets that can be secure in bezel, low prong, or hybrid settings, making it an excellent candidate for an engagement ring that will be worn every day. Simple care routines of gentle cleaning with warm soapy water, occasional professional inspection of the setting, and avoiding extreme thermal shocks will preserve the vivid color intensity and excellent polish for years to come. If your search is for a rare, wearable ruby that brings confidence and beauty to every occasion, this Mozambique ruby from The Natural Ruby Company is the solution, a gem that completes your quest for a striking, durable, and ready to wear treasure.
