Information about the gems found in this ring

Rubies  are the birthstone of July. They are a rare gemstone and are adored for their red colour, durability and incredible lustre. Ruby is the red variety of the mineral Corundum and part of the list of the most precious gemstones alongside diamond, sapphire and emerald.

Diamonds are a girl’s best friend and are also the birthstone for the month of April. The name diamond comes from the ancient Greek meaning ‘unconquerable’. Diamonds are the hardest natural substance on earth, made up of nearly 100% carbon.
