Dainty Minimalist July Birthstone Necklace – Genuine Faceted Pink Ruby
A lovely, delicate little collarbone style necklace featuring a gorgeous single faceted genuine pink ruby. Perfect minimalist design to wear alone or layer with other necklaces. Choose from Sterling silver, 14k Yellow Gold Filled, or 14k Rose Gold Filled.
The birthstone for July is Ruby, the “Queen of stones, and stone of kings.”
For this necklace design, I’ve chosen a beautiful genuine faceted ruby as the centerpiece. The rubies used for this design are hand faceted, untreated and absolutely splendid. They range in color from very pale greyish-pink to a deep raspberry pink, and are translucent to opaque with inclusions.
This necklace is made to order and no two rubies are exactly the same. Yours will be created just for you in your choice of length and metal.
THE DETAILS
-A single genuine faceted pink ruby is the centerpiece of this dainty necklace.
-I will choose a ruby from my collection to create your bespoke necklace. (Last photo shows a portion of my faceted ruby selection.) Each one is unique and they are all beautiful.
-Rubies range from very pale pink to raspberry in color, and are translucent to opaque with unique inclusions. They measure 4.5 to 5mm in size. If you have a preference of ruby color (lighter or deeper pink) please message me before purchase, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your request based on availability.
-Ruby is connected directly to a lovely, delicate and sparkly cable chain which is finished with a spring ring clasp and figure eight loop with bead detail at the back. *Please Note* Fine chain is delicate and should be treated with due care to help prevent breakage.

ABOUT GOLD FILLED JEWELRY
Gold-filled jewelry is composed of a solid layer of gold, which must constitute at least 5% (1/20) of the item’s total weight, mechanically bonded to sterling silver or a base metal (such as jeweler’s brass). Gold-filled items are 5 to 10 times thicker than regular gold plating, and 15 to 25 times thicker than gold electroplate, making it much more valuable and longer lasting because gold-filled has an actual layer of karat gold, not just a microscopic film as on plated jewelry which is estimated to be 0.05% or less of the metal product. Most gold-filled is 12kt or 14kt gold-filled (I use 14kt for my pieces). Gold-filled does not de-laminate or peel like plated or “dipped” products. It is tarnish resistant and does not tarnish as readily as silver. Many find that they never have to clean gold-filled items at all. However, from time to time your jewelry may become dirty from everyday wear. To clean gold-filled it is best to use mild soap and water.

I bought myself a ruby necklace for my birthday and love it so much. It’s very tiny, delicate and easy to keep on, especially if you’re not much of a jewelry wearer.

Beautiful color ruby on a delicate chain. A great value for the price. I’ve had it about a year now and it looks like the day I purchased it and I wear it a lot.
