Six petite round rubies frame a single diamond accent in these delicate floral earrings, crafted from genuine sterling silver with an 18 karat yellow gold overlay. The stones have an opaque pink-red color and are held securely in prong settings. The petite flowers dangle from curved posts, and the earrings are secured with comfortable leverback closures. Ruby, the red variety of the mineral corundum, is often given as a symbol of love or passion. This exceptionally durable gemstone is the birthstone for the month of July.

About Birthstone Jewelry

ruby
July Birthstone: Ruby
Known as "king of the gems" in ancient Sanskrit, the ruby has long been prized for its rarity and its passionate red hue. Those born in July wear rubies as symbols of beauty, love, happiness, and good fortune.
History of Birthstones
Chances are you can name your birthstone, but have you ever wondered how certain stones came to be associated with particular months? Most gem scholars trace the tradition to the Old Testament story of Aaron, whose breastplate was decorated with twelve precious stones, one for each of the twelve tribes of Israel. Over time, these stones were linked with certain powers and tied to particular astrological signs, and later to calendar months.
There are many variations of birthstone lists, including Mystical birthstones, which originate from Tibet and date back over a thousand years, and Ayurvedic birthstones, associated with ancient Indian medicine and beliefs. Birthstones have also been tied to ancient Pagan religions, and even to the collective wisdom of the legendary lost city of Atlantis.
The Modern birthstone list, perhaps the most universally known, was released by the American National Association of Jewelers and officially adopted in 1912. Whether you embrace birthstone lore, or look upon it with a skeptical eye, there is an undeniable appeal to collecting a beautiful gemstone that is reputed to hold special power, meaning, and good fortune just for you.
