MONDAY'S MESSAGE: July's Birthstone is Ruby
Above: A round ruby is the centerpiece of this contemporary 18K cocktail ring custom designed by Craig Brady.
A ruby is a red sapphire. Traditionally a symbol of passionate love, rubies are nearly as hard and often more expensive than diamonds. Hindus believed that a fine ruby could boil water! The Black Prince's ruby in the British Crown Jewels is really a very fine natural spinel.
Below: Two pear-shaped rubies with diamond accents are the focal points in this 18K infinity pin custom designed by Craig Brady.
