Regal Ruby & Diamond Engagement Ring

This engagement ring is set with a fantastic pigeon’s blood red Ruby weighing 1 1/2cts. Rubies are the rarest and priciest colored gemstone in fine quality- so when we get a good one, we tend to set it in an elegant setting that allows the gem to speak for itself. Here is a classic 5-stone presentation, where two graduated diamonds flank the Ruby on either side. Often times Rubies are set in yellow gold to richen their color but this one needs no such treatment, so we set it in neutral white gold for a more modern look. Quite frankly, this Ruby gem looks like a burning red ember sitting on your finger- amazing!

We were lucky to get this Ruby, due to the trade embargo with Myanmar (Burma) where the finest Rubies come from, and the lack of production in Africa. Thus most of the Ruby material on the market today is either lab created, glass filled (a non-permanent treatment done to low quality material), or is opaque and not very attractive. This one was sourced from the estate of a local collector, hence the attractive price and known origin.

Details: 14k white gold engagement ring with 1.48ct oval Burmese Ruby (Heat Only) and .32ctw round Diamonds (VS GH). Accompanied by report and appraisal #1075071 from North American Gemological Laboratory.
