With beautiful and distinctive designs and colours, an engagement ring can now perfectly match the personality of your significant other.

Ruby<\/strong> 
<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Rubies have been among one of the most sought after gemstones in history. The stone has been used in jewellery for centuries, so why not consider an engagement ring with this enchanting red gem. Rubies are part of the traditional cardinal gems group. They have been considered valuable and precious since antiquity due to their beauty, rarity and use in religious ceremonies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Similarly to diamonds, a coloured gemstone\u2019s quality is judged by its colour, cut, clarity and carat weight. When purchasing a ruby consider that it is possible and common for a ruby stone to have rutile inclusions. A gem lacking those means it has been treated in some way to artificially improve its quality.

Sapphires are a variety of the same mineral from which rubies are formed. Much like their sibling stone, sapphires have been mined for their beauty and extraordinary colour.
