0.45 Ct. Ruby and Natural Diamond Pave Pendant, 18K White Gold

This elegant pendant from The Natural Ruby Company centers on a vivid Mozambique ruby, 0.45 carat, pear-shaped, with dimensions of 6.00 x 4.00 x 2.80 mm, a mixed brilliant cut, with a clarity grade of Very Slightly Included as evaluated at eye level, excellent polish, and heat treated to enhance its natural colour. Surrounding the ruby is a halo of 23 white round brilliant cut natural diamonds, totaling 0.13 carats, each graded Very Slightly Included in clarity and F in color, set to maximize light return and to accent the ruby with crisp, icy contrast. The entire composition is crafted in 18K white gold, with the ruby and diamonds securely set to present a refined teardrop silhouette that flatters the neckline and pairs effortlessly with both day and evening attire. The design focuses on balanced proportions and precise gem placement, allowing the ruby to remain the focal point while the diamond halo adds sparkle and dimensionality.

Beyond its beauty, this pendant is built for real-life wear, making it an excellent choice for daily use. Rubies rate 9 on the Mohs hardness scale, second only to diamonds, which makes this gemstone exceptionally resistant to scratches and everyday wear, and the round brilliant diamonds add further durability in the surrounding halo. The 18K white gold setting offers a strong, enduring metal foundation that resists bending and retains its polish with normal care, while the secure setting style reduces the risk of gem loss during routine activities. For maintenance, gentle cleaning with warm water and mild soap is recommended to preserve brilliance, and occasional professional inspection will ensure prongs and settings remain secure. If you are seeking a pendant that combines a luxurious, vivid Mozambique ruby with dependable construction for everyday elegance, this piece from The Natural Ruby Company offers an ideal balance of gemstone quality, thoughtful design, and durability, ready to become a signature piece in your jewelry collection.
