A few interesting facts about rubies…
- rubies are red sapphires
- they are the 2nd hardest gemstone (next to diamonds)
- you can buy them as lab-created or natural
- they are available in an array of cuts and shades of red

What does this mean for you?
Rubies are an excellent choice for an everyday ring. There are rubies available to buy at many budgets (all the way up to being more expensive than diamonds). And there may be a ruby for everyone’s individual tastes (cabochon, faceted, small, large, light and dark).

What variety of ruby would you be most interested in? Let me know!

When in downtown Greenville, SC… 🛍️

Be sure to swing by the Grand Bohemian Gallery in the Grand Bohemian Hotel. There you’ll find a collection of my handcrafted fine jewelry and framed art. You’ll also see the jewelry and art of several other amazing artisans. To top it off, you’ll get to meet my three favorite gallery ladies.

Sounds like a magical afternoon to me. 🤩

(If you’re visiting and need help finding it, send me a dm. I’m happy to assist. 🙏)

Rutilated quartz, ruby, and diamond—each stone brings something completely different to these earrings.

Rutilated quartz is clear quartz filled with natural, thread-like inclusions—called rutiles. No two are ever the same.

Ruby adds that deep, rich red—long associated with passion and vitality. Did you know that rubies are simply red sapphires?

While diamonds, the world’s hardest gemstone, bring just a touch of structure and light.

What gemstones are you most interested in learning about?

(And this pair is currently available on my site!)
