0.45 Ct. Ruby Bezel Necklace, 14K White Gold

The Natural Ruby Company presents an elegant 18 inch necklace, entirely set in 14K white gold, featuring a captivating 0.45 carat round red ruby that measures 4.50 x 4.50 x 2.85 mm, cut in a mixed brilliant style. The stone displays a vivid color intensity and an excellent polish, and it is graded as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, with an enhancement of heat treated origin from Mozambique. What makes this piece exceptional is the attention to detail in the setting, every facet considered to maximize fire and color, and the way the white gold cradle complements the red, framing the gem like a jewel within a jewel. The dimensions are balanced to sit gracefully at the collar, and the minimal profile of the setting allows the ruby to read as a pure point of color against the skin, while the polished white gold finish reflects light back through the stone for added brilliance.

Each necklace is assembled with meticulous hand work, the ruby placed and secured by experienced setters who work under magnification to align the pavilion and crown, then finish the bezel seat for a seamless fit, every microscopic gap checked and refined to ensure the stone sits true and stable. The process begins with selecting the ruby for its hue and clarity, followed by precise hand engraving of the seat, careful burnishing of the metal, and a final polish that removes any tool marks without altering the stone profile, this level of craftsmanship ensures longevity and a refined aesthetic that elevates both casual and formal wardrobes. Whether worn alone for a subtle statement, or layered with other necklaces for a modern stack, this piece offers versatility and a timeless quality. The Natural Ruby Company stands behind the piece with provenance information and a commitment to quality, ensuring that the intrinsic beauty of the Mozambique ruby is matched by the skill that sets it. This necklace is an intimate example of classic gem setting, where technical skill and artistic sensibility combine to celebrate the natural color and life of a single perfect ruby.
