GEM BLEU Ruby and Diamond Pendant in 14K

Named from the Latin word for red, ruby is the essence of red and the gem of desire, passion, courage, and emotion. In Ancient Sanskrit, ruby is ratnaraj, the king of gems. Ruby burns like a glowing coal: no wonder ancient people believed they contained an undying flame. For most of recorded history, ruby has been the most valuable gem. In the Bible, only wisdom and virtuous women are "more precious than rubies.” Burning bright in history and legend but even more bewitching in person, ruby is the birthstone for the month of July and the gem of the 15th and 40th anniversaries.

With a warm sunny glow, 14k gold is the standard for fine jewelry, valued in every culture for its beauty as well as its long history as a store of wealth and a symbol of success. Gold doesn’t tarnish, rust or corrode. Pure 24K gold is alloyed with other metals, including silver, copper and zinc, to make it more durable. 14K yellow gold, 58.5% gold, is the most popular alloy in the United States because it holds gems securely and resists wear and scratching. Your gold jewelry will shine for generations.
