Why You'll Love It
This beautiful ring brings together three enduring elements of fine jewellery—ruby, diamond and yellow gold—in a wonderfully wearable vintage design.
The oval ruby takes centre stage while the diamond shoulders provide just the right amount of sparkle without overpowering the stone. At approximately 2.4g, the ring also has a pleasing presence on the finger.
Ruby is traditionally the July birthstone and has long been associated with love and passion, making this a meaningful choice for a birthday, anniversary, romantic occasion or simply as a special addition to a vintage jewellery collection.
