Frequently Asked Questions
How do you care for a ruby necklace to preserve its vibrant brilliance?
A ruby necklace should be gently cleaned with lukewarm water and a mild soap, then dried with a microfibre cloth. Avoid impacts, harsh chemicals and prolonged contact with water. Store it separately from other jewellery to protect both the ruby and the precious metal setting.
What is the difference between a ruby necklace and a gold necklace with diamonds and rubies?
A ruby necklace places this precious gemstone at its heart, whilst a gold necklace with diamonds and rubies combines the brilliance of diamonds with the deep red intensity of the ruby. This pairing creates a luminous contrast that allows each stone to truly shine.
What is an oval-cut ruby and why is it so prized in fine jewellery?
An oval-cut ruby is a precious stone whose elongated form maximises brilliance and depth of colour. Highly sought after in fine jewellery, this cut enhances the ruby's intense red hue and lends a refined elegance to any women's necklace.
What cultural significance is associated with the ruby across different traditions?
The ruby is associated with passion, prosperity and protection. Across many cultures, it was worn by kings and queens as a symbol of power and eternal love. Its vibrant hue makes it a gemstone steeped in history and meaning.
What is the visual difference between a white gold and a yellow gold ruby necklace?
A white gold necklace with rubies and diamonds offers a striking contrast between the red stone and the bright metal, whilst a yellow gold and ruby necklace highlights the warmth of the metal alongside the depth of the gemstone. Rose gold, meanwhile, adds a modern and romantic touch. The choice comes down to personal style.
Where does the ruby's characteristic deep red colour come from?
The ruby's intense red colour comes from the presence of chromium in its composition. Depending on concentration and the gemstone's origin, the hue can range from deep rose to vivid scarlet, creating entirely unique tones within every ruby necklace.
What are the ideal occasions for wearing a ruby necklace?
A ruby necklace is perfect for celebrating a milestone, marking an achievement or gifting something truly exceptional. Its vibrant brilliance and timeless elegance make it an ideal piece for special occasions, from weddings to elegant dinner parties.
Why combine diamonds and rubies in a women's necklace?
Pairing diamonds and rubies in a women's necklace creates a beautiful balance between brilliance and intensity. The pure light of diamonds enhances the deep red of the ruby, resulting in a timeless and refined piece, particularly coveted in solitaire necklace designs.
How can you tell a natural ruby from a synthetic one in a piece of jewellery?
A natural ruby typically displays fine inclusions visible under a loupe, unlike a synthetic ruby, which appears visually more perfect. At Mayuri Paris, every ruby necklace is set with a certified AAA natural gemstone, individually selected for its exceptional colour and clarity.
What are the advantages of a yellow gold pendant set with a ruby?
A yellow gold pendant with a ruby highlights the warmth of the metal and the depth of the stone. This classic pairing is admired for its visual harmony and timeless appeal, equally suited to everyday wear and special occasions.
Is rhodium plating recommended for a white gold ruby and diamond necklace?
Yes. Rhodium plating protects the white gold and enhances its brilliance, making the diamonds and rubies appear even more radiant. Applied to our white gold necklaces, this treatment ensures a luminous finish and greater resistance to oxidation.
What are the artisanal steps involved in creating a ruby necklace from the Mayuri Paris collection?
Every ruby necklace is crafted through a precise artisanal process: selection of the AAA gemstone, choice of precious metal (18k gold or platinum), creation of the design, meticulous stone setting and hand-finishing in our Responsible Jewellery Council certified workshops. This expertise guarantees a piece of exceptional quality and timeless elegance.
