Gold Ruby Earrings

The value of natural ruby earrings depends on the carat weight, colour, clarity and cut quality of the gemstones, as well as any treatment applied. The price is also affected by the gold fineness, the earring design and any additional gemstones, such as diamonds. In this collection, prices of gold ruby earrings with white diamonds vary according to the chosen design and the size of the rubies.

There are no scientifically based restrictions that would prevent certain people from wearing rubies. Advice found in astrology or other traditions is based on belief rather than scientific evidence. If your skin is sensitive to metals, pay attention not to the ruby but to the composition of the gold alloy, and choose high-quality, comfortable earrings.

The most highly prized rubies are a rich, vivid, pure red, often described as “pigeon’s blood” red. Such stones may have a subtle bluish or purplish tint, but brown or orange tones should not dominate. The most valuable ruby is neither too light nor so dark that it looks almost black. Strong colour saturation and a natural glow further enhance its beauty.

The ruby has long symbolised love, passion, courage, energy and vitality. Thanks to their rich red colour, ruby earrings are often chosen as a romantic gift for a loved one, for an important anniversary or another special occasion. Combined with gold and white diamonds, rubies give a piece of jewellery distinction and luxury.

The most reliable way to establish a ruby’s authenticity is a professional gemmological examination and a certificate confirming its quality. Natural rubies often show tiny inclusions, but these alone are not enough to assess a stone, as lab-grown rubies can also look very convincing. You should check whether the ruby is natural, lab-grown or an imitation, and whether it has been heat-treated or otherwise treated. Scratch, heat or chemical tests at home are not recommended, as they can damage the gemstone and the metal of the earrings.
