1.22 Ct. Pinkish Red Ruby and Natural Diamond Antique Style Ring, 14K Rose Gold

From the very first civilizations that prized gem quality corundum, rubies have carried meanings of power, protection, and enduring beauty, and this exquisite pair of oval rubies embodies that ancient legacy with a clarity and color that transcends time. Each stone combines graceful oval proportions with a mixed brilliant cut that maximizes scintillation and fire, together totaling 0.58 carats, with dimensions of 5.35 by 3.14 by 2.66 millimeters. These pinkish red rubies originate from Burma Myanmar, a source long celebrated for producing some of the most vivid and sought after rubies in history, and they display vivid color intensity, an eye clean clarity when examined at eye level, and an excellent polish that allows light to travel freely through the stones. The gems have been heat treated in a manner traditional to the trade, a documented and stable enhancement that deepens tone and refines brilliance without compromising their natural character. As a specialist at The Natural Ruby Company I appreciate how the stones speak to collectors who value provenance and the timeless story behind each gem, and how their natural transparency and hue recall the warm glow of candlelit halls and the quiet dignity of heirloom jewelry.

The ring setting itself is an exercise in classical restraint and masterful proportion, conceived to draw the eye directly to the twins of ruby at its heart. Flanked on either side by two white oval mixed brilliant cut natural diamonds totaling 0.62 carats, with G color and VS2 clarity, the diamonds act as a quiet foil, enhancing the rubies by contrast, adding white light and sparkle without overpowering the central color. Set entirely in 14K rose gold, the warm metal echoes the rubies rosy undertone, creating a cohesive visual flow that guides attention to the center stones from every angle. The mounting lifts the rubies slightly above the band, allowing light to enter and reflect through the pavilion and table, while precisely executed prongs and a low profile keep the overall silhouette wearable and enduring. This balance of historical reverence and considered design results in a ring that feels both noble and intimate, a piece meant to be worn now and passed down later, a living legacy. At The Natural Ruby Company we take pride in presenting jewelry that honors tradition, craftsmanship, and the natural beauty of fine gemstones, and this ring is a distinguished example of that commitment.
