Chromium is the element that creates the ruby’s famous red color. The primary price point for these stones is this very coloration that serious collectors crave. Blood-red gems are the most valuable. After the hue, the clarity determines the price. Rubies and diamonds have this trait in common. Incidentally, this fact makes these two gems great complementary stones to use on the same piece of jewelry.
Peter Suchy specializes in presenting you with the kinds of ruby diamond rings that are not only show stoppers but also instant heirlooms. Which are our favorites?
Blood Red Ruby and Diamond Ring
Dated to the 1930s, this vintage retro ring features three full-cut white diamonds weighing in at about .24cts. The setting material is 14k solid yellow gold. Ten blood red rubies – weighing in at 2.50cts – surround the diamonds. Enveloping the gems is the gold setting on the sides.
Ruby Cocktail Ring with Diamond Center
The setting of this stunning ring is 14k solid yellow gold. The ruby is the main gemstone. One round diamond weighing .13cts is surrounded by 32 round rubies weighing 1.60cts. Suchy’s experts have dated this ring to about 1965. What sets apart this ring from the rest is the way the artisan has integrated the prongs into the design.
Vintage Purplish Ruby and Diamond Art Deco Ring
This Art Deco ring has a platinum setting. The ruby features a unique purple coloration that is not the result of manmade enhancements. The weight of this translucent oval stone totals 17.90cts. To the sides, two baguette diamonds weighing .14cts frame the ruby. This is a formidable ring that demands attention.
Diamond and Ruby Bow Ring
Dated to the 1930s, the setting material is 14k solid rose gold. The bow perfectly suits the retro motif that was so popular back then. The diamond features an old European cut in a platinum bezel. It weighs .45cts. Six rubies accentuate the piece. They weigh 1.20cts. The understated elegance of this piece makes it suitable for daily wear or special occasions.
White Gold Diamond and Ruby Ring
This is a gorgeous alternative to a standard engagement ring. The setting is made of 14k white gold. The bright-red .55cts ruby is surrounded by 10 full-cut diamonds weighing in at .33cts. The elegant ring is perfect for daily wear.
