Ruby Earrings

The ravishing ruby has captivated many cultures with its beauty over the centuries. Its fiery crimson colour is seen as symbolic of romance, passion and energy, and the ruby is sometimes worn to attract love. Because it is a highly durable stone, the ruby is also thought to provide the wearer with protection and guidance.

Rubies are very strong gemstones, ranking at 9 on the Mohs scale of hardness. Only diamonds, at a 10, rank higher. This means that rubies, and especially ruby earrings, are an excellent choice for everyday wear. Go ahead, put on your favourite solitaire ruby studs and give any of your favourite casual outfits an extra touch of chic style that you can show off every day.

In addition to their striking appearance and incredible durability, rubies are also quite rare, making them among the highest-priced coloured gemstones. Ruby earrings start at over five hundred dollars for studs and can go up to tens of thousands of dollars for cluster ruby and diamond earrings. Though on the more expensive side of fine jewellery, ruby pieces will last a lifetime with the proper care.
