July is For Rubies

June 30, 2023  /  Howie Toftegaard

Ruby Fashion Jewelry is now 15% off for the month of July.

The Ruby as the July Birthstone has its ties to Love, Passion, and Raw Emotion. The name is derived from the Latin word ruber, meaning “red” – the color of love and passion. Few things catch the eye like the ruby birthstone.

Romance, Devotion, and Passion: All great qualities that make Ruby worthy as a 40th Wedding Anniversary. What better way than to gift it as a beautiful ring to wear everyday. Especially being second below the Diamond on the MOHS scale for durability. 

Fun Fact:  Long ago, humans believed that rubies contained drops of Mother Earth's blood. With said, ruby has long symbolized life, vitality, and youth.

Rubies do look best when mounted in yellow. It will stand out and catch the eye. There are so many beautiful pieces to choose from.
