I was so excited to find some of these gorgeous stones in Tucson this year! The color is amazing and the numerous, tiny micro-facets give it such a pretty sparkle.

This one is a 10 x 14 mm oval hot pink ruby, set in an 18k yellow gold bezel. The remainder of the ring, including the heavy band, is sterling silver. I've set it horizontally across the finger. This stone is more glowing than I was able to show in the photos - the hot pink flashes around the stone as you move your hand. So pretty in person!

***Ruby is a red variety of corundum and the rich, gorgeous red color comes from the presence of chromium. Ruby is associated with the root chakra and is thought to energize and activate the physical as well as the mental and emotional bodies. It has long been considered a stone of courage. Ruby is the birthstone for July.***

Currently a size 7, I'll be happy to size this ring up or down to fit. :O)

Made with love in my Sonoran Desert studio. xo
