About these Earrings

An appraisal is a document stating the approximate retail replacement value of an item. It is calculated using current market data, which reflects typical retail prices. The appraisal includes the cut, color, clarity, and either carat weight for diamonds or millimeter dimensions for gemstones, and the craftsmanship of the item. Your appraisal ensures that in the case of loss, theft, or damage your insurance company will give you an equal replacement of your item. The more information contained in the appraisal, the better chance you have of receiving the exact replacement for that item.

Frequently Asked Questions

All You Need to Know About Ruby Earrings

How do I choose a quality ruby for earrings?

Selecting Quality Ruby

Color is everything with rubies. The best stones show vivid, saturated red without being too dark. Some rubies display a silky sheen or asterism (star effect). Natural inclusions are common and help distinguish natural from synthetic stones.

  • Color: Rubies range from pinkish-red to deep blood red. The most prized color is "pigeon blood"—a vivid, pure red with a slight blue undertone. Burmese rubies are legendary for this color. Slight pink or orange tints are common and can be attractive.
  • Hardness: 9 on the Mohs scale
  • Birthstone: July
What ruby earring styles are available?

Ruby Earring Styles

Ruby works beautifully in many earring styles. Stud earrings showcase the stone's red color in a classic, everyday format. Drop earrings let the gemstone catch light as it moves, creating eye-catching sparkle. Halo designs surround the ruby with diamonds to amplify its color and presence.

  • Studs: Classic, versatile, perfect for daily wear
  • Drops: Elegant movement, great for dressing up
  • Hoops: Modern look with ruby accents
  • Halo: Diamonds surrounding the center stone for extra sparkle
  • Cluster: Multiple smaller stones grouped for visual impact
What metal pairs best with ruby earrings?

Metal Pairing Guide

The right metal can enhance your ruby's natural red color significantly. White gold and platinum create a clean, modern contrast that lets the gemstone stand out. Yellow gold adds warmth and complements stones with warmer undertones. Rose gold offers a contemporary, romantic pairing.

  • White Gold: Clean contrast, modern appearance
  • Yellow Gold: Warm, classic combination
  • Rose Gold: Trendy, romantic look
  • Platinum: Most durable, hypoallergenic
How do I care for my ruby earrings?

Care and Maintenance

Ruby is extremely durable with a hardness of 9 on the Mohs scale—second only to diamond. Safe for daily wear. Clean with warm soapy water, soft brush, or ultrasonic cleaner. Avoid high heat for treated stones.

  • Clean regularly with warm soapy water and a soft brush
  • Store separately from other jewelry to prevent scratches
  • Remove before swimming, exercising, or using chemicals
  • Have settings checked by a jeweler periodically
  • Avoid exposing to extreme temperature changes

Buyer's Guide

Gold Rings Buying Guide

Gold rings mark moments, express style, and last lifetimes when chosen well. Here's what you need to know to make a confident purchase.

Ring Types
Engagement rings: Traditionally feature a center stone. Diamond is classic; colored gems are trending.

Wedding bands: Worn daily for life. Prioritize comfort and durability.

Fashion rings: Style pieces for any finger. More freedom in design choices.

Stackable rings: Thin bands designed to be worn in multiples.

Signet rings: Flat top surface, often engraved. Classic, masculine style.

Eternity bands: Gemstones circle the entire band. Dramatic sparkle.

Getting the Size Right
Ring size changes throughout the day and with temperature:

When to measure: End of day when fingers are largest. Avoid cold conditions.

Width matters: Wide bands fit tighter than thin ones. Size up half a size for wide bands.

Knuckle considerations: If your knuckle is larger than your finger base, size for the knuckle and consider sizing beads.

Between sizes: Go up, not down. Slightly loose is better than painfully tight.

Professional sizing: Jewelers can size you accurately. It's worth the trip.

Choosing Gold Purity
10K gold: Most durable, least expensive. Good for rings that take abuse.

14K gold: The American standard. Balances durability with gold content.

18K gold: Richer color, softer. International luxury standard. Best for special pieces.

For daily wear rings like wedding bands, 14K offers the best combination of appearance and durability. 18K is fine if you're willing to accept that it'll show wear faster.

Band Shapes and Comfort
Comfort fit: Rounded interior slides on easily and feels less tight. Best for daily wear bands.

Standard fit: Flat interior. Traditional, costs less.

Flat bands: Modern, geometric look. Can feel less comfortable than curved profiles.

Domed/Court: Curved exterior, comfortable interior. Classic shape.

Knife edge: Pointed profile creates dramatic shadow lines. Stylish but can feel sharp.

For rings you'll wear constantly, comfort fit is worth the small premium.

Finish Options
High polish: Mirror-like shine. Classic, shows scratches more readily.

Matte/Brushed: Soft, non-reflective finish. Hides wear better.

Hammered: Textured surface with small indentations. Artisanal look, very forgiving of scratches.

Satin: Between polish and matte. Subtle sheen.

Combination: Mix of finishes for visual interest.

Consider your lifestyle. High polish looks great new but shows every scratch. Matte and textured finishes are more forgiving for active hands.
Long-term Considerations
Resizing potential: Most gold rings can be sized up or down. Very wide bands or full eternity bands are harder to resize.

Daily wear: Your ring will get scratched. This is normal. Gold can be polished.

Active lifestyle: Consider removing rings for gym, sports, manual work. Or choose a more durable design.

Professional maintenance: Annual inspection and cleaning keeps rings in top shape.

Insurance: For valuable rings, get them appraised and insured. It's worth the peace of mind.
