Rose Gold Ruby Necklaces

The ruby rose gold necklace embodies the perfect union of passion and romance. Ruby, the stone of ardent love and courage, has symbolized vitality and life force since ancient times, while rose gold evokes tenderness and the softness of emotion. Offering or wearing this jewel expresses deep and sincere love, making it a cherished choice for marking life's precious moments.

Ruby quality is assessed according to several precise gemological criteria.

• Color: the most sought-after rubies display a deep, saturated red called "pigeon's blood"
• Clarity: optimal transparency with few inclusions visible to the naked eye
• Cut: precise faceting that maximizes brilliance and light play
• Gemological certificate: authentication by a recognized laboratory guaranteeing origin and characteristics

At Mayuri, all our rubies are AAA quality and accompanied by their certificate of authenticity.

Absolutely. Ruby is one of the most durable gemstones in fine jewelry. With a hardness of 9 on the Mohs scale, only diamond surpasses it, making it ideal for a necklace worn every day. This remarkable strength allows ruby to resist scratches and wear over time, while maintaining its intense red brilliance intact for decades.

The most renowned rubies come from a few exceptional regions around the world. Burma (Myanmar) produces the legendary "pigeon's blood" rubies, while Thailand offers stones with a deep, slightly purplish red. Mozambique and Madagascar also provide high-quality rubies. At Mayuri, we work primarily with Thai rubies for our collections, and can source Burmese or Mozambican stones upon request for bespoke creations.

The ruby rose gold necklace lends itself beautifully to layering and combinations.

• Layering: wear it with rose gold chains of varying lengths for a contemporary effect
• Matching set: pair it with ruby rose gold earrings or a ring for perfect harmony
• Mixed gemstones: combine it with diamond or pink sapphire necklaces for a bold style
• Mixed metals: rose gold pairs elegantly with yellow gold for a modern look

Burmese and Thai rubies present distinct characteristics prized in fine jewelry. Burmese rubies are celebrated for their pure "pigeon's blood" red with a slight blue fluorescence, while Thai rubies display a deeper red with purple undertones. Both origins produce exceptional stones, and the choice depends more on personal aesthetic preferences than on any difference in intrinsic quality.

The ruby rose gold necklace adapts perfectly to vintage and retro inspiration. Art Deco inspired creations highlight the geometry of rubies with structured motifs, while Belle Époque styles favor delicacy with diamond surrounds. Rose gold, a favored metal of the 1940s, brings a romantic and nostalgic dimension that naturally enhances the deep red of ruby in designs with timeless and refined charm.

Ruby and pink sapphire both belong to the corundum family, but offer different aesthetics. Ruby displays an intense, passionate red, symbolizing ardent love and vitality, while pink sapphire presents softer, more romantic hues. For a rose gold necklace, ruby creates a striking and dramatic contrast, ideal for strong personalities, while pink sapphire favors tone-on-tone harmony for understated elegance.

For a ruby rose gold solitaire necklace, several cuts are favored depending on the desired effect.

• Oval cut: the most common, it maximizes brilliance and visually elongates the neck
• Cushion cut: offers a vintage appeal with rounded corners and excellent light play
• Pear cut: elegant and sophisticated, perfect for formal occasions
• Emerald cut: emphasizes clarity with its rectangular facets for a contemporary style

Each cut is selected to reveal the deep color of the ruby.

Ruby has held an exceptional place in French haute joaillerie for several centuries. The great Parisian houses elevated it to royal gemstone status as early as the 18th century, adorning crowns and parures of nobility. The Art Deco period marked a turning point with bold geometric creations combining rubies and diamonds. Today, contemporary French jewelry, including Mayuri, perpetuates this tradition of excellence by creating modern and timeless pieces that celebrate the brilliance of ruby.
