Gold Ruby Rings

A ruby ring symbolises love, passion, energy, courage and vitality. The rich red colour of ruby has long been associated with royalty, strong emotions and inner strength, so a ruby ring makes both a romantic gift and a distinctive accent to your personal style.

A ruby ring can be worn on whichever finger is most comfortable. If it is an engagement ring or a symbol of love, the ring finger of the left or right hand is the usual choice. For a bolder style statement, the ring can be worn on the middle or index finger. In Vedic astrology, ruby is associated with the Sun and is often recommended to be worn on the ring finger of the right hand, although this depends on personal beliefs.

The price of a gold ruby ring depends on the size and quality of the stone, the weight of the gold, the design and any additional gemstones. In this collection, ring prices start from approximately 374 Eur, while exclusive designs with rubies and diamonds can cost more than 4 000 Eur.

The most valuable rubies are a rich, intense and pure red, often described as “pigeon’s blood” red. This shade is a vivid red with a subtle bluish or purplish tone. The stone should be neither too light nor so dark that it looks almost black in normal light. A ruby’s value is also determined by its clarity, quality of cut, amount of inclusions, origin, size and whether the stone has been treated.

The most reliable way to confirm a ruby’s authenticity is to have it examined by a gemmologist or an independent gemmological laboratory. When viewed under a magnifying glass, a natural ruby often shows small irregular inclusions or fine mineral needles. Perfectly round air bubbles may indicate a glass imitation. A laboratory-grown ruby is a real ruby in chemical composition and physical properties, but it can often be distinguished from a natural stone only through specialist testing. Scratching the stone or rubbing it against hard surfaces is not recommended, as this can damage the ring or its setting. When buying a valuable piece of jewellery, it is worth choosing a ring with a certificate confirming its quality.
