Bezel-set Ruby Necklace: Frequently Asked Questions
-
Is a lab-created ruby a real ruby?
Yes. Lab-created rubies are chemically and optically identical to natural rubies, composed of the same corundum mineral with chromium that produces the characteristic red color. They are grown in controlled environments that replicate natural formation conditions, resulting in the same physical and visual properties as mined stones.
-
What is ruby the birthstone for?
Ruby is the birthstone for July. It is also associated with the Cancer and Leo zodiac signs. Along with diamond, emerald, and sapphire, ruby is one of the four precious gemstones, and has been among the most highly valued gems in the world for centuries across many cultures.
-
What does ruby symbolize?
Ruby is traditionally associated with passion, courage, protection, and enduring love. It has historically been worn by warriors for strength in battle and by royalty as a symbol of power and vitality. Today it is a widely recognized symbol of deep feeling and committed love.
-
Can I wear a ruby necklace every day?
Yes. Ruby rates 9 on the Mohs hardness scale, second only to diamond, making it one of the most durable gemstones for daily wear. The bezel setting provides additional protection for the stone's edges. It is well-suited for continuous wear and ages well over time.
-
What metal pairs best with ruby?
Yellow gold is the classic and most traditional pairing for ruby, creating a warm, richly colored combination with historical roots in fine jewelry. Rose gold adds a romantic softness. White gold and sterling silver offer a cooler contrast that makes the red appear more vivid and bold.
-
How long does it take to receive a custom ruby necklace?
Each piece is made to order. Please allow up to 10 business days for production. In-stock configurations may ship sooner. All US orders over $150 include free standard shipping and arrive gift-ready.

Bezel-Set Ruby Necklace
There is nothing subtle about ruby red. It is the color of conviction, of depth, of something that knows exactly what it is. Distilled into a 3mm stone at the collarbone, this lab-created ruby wears with an understated intensity, a quiet flash of color that is unmistakable without being loud. Minimalism, it turns out, can still be vivid.
July's birthstone, ruby has been one of the most prized gemstones in the world for centuries, valued above all others in many ancient cultures for its association with passion, courage, and enduring love. This necklace is made to order in your choice of 14K gold or sterling silver, a piece built to be worn every day and kept for a lifetime.
The Bezel Setting, Explained
Ruby is one of the four precious gemstones, alongside diamond, emerald, and sapphire, and one of the hardest stones used in jewelry. This lab-created 3mm stone offers the same chemical and optical properties as a mined ruby, with the clarity and color consistency that makes a stone this size wear its best. The vivid red is the result of chromium within the corundum crystal structure, the same source of color in the finest Burmese rubies.
The bezel setting wraps a continuous rim of precious metal around the perimeter of the stone, creating a clean, modern frame that protects the edges while leaving the face of the stone fully visible. It is the most protective setting style available, and for a stone worn daily, it is also the most practical. At 16inches, the chain positions the pendant at the collarbone, where the color reads most clearly against skin.
Why You'll Love It
- A lab-created 3mm ruby with the vivid, saturated red of the finest natural stones and the durability to be worn every day without worry.
- The bezel setting holds the stone securely on all sides, making this one of the most practical choices for an everyday necklace.
- The 16-inch chain sits at the collarbone and layers naturally with longer pendants and other pieces in a stack.
- Available in 14K yellow, white, or rose gold and sterling silver, each metal bringing out a different quality in the stone's vivid red.
- July's birthstone, associated with passion, courage, and enduring love, a genuinely meaningful gift for someone important.
