Gemstones
Twelve cabochon rubies
Five square-cut rubies. We have not verified whether these are laboratory rubies, as this information has no influence on the value of this jewel. Both natural and laboratory rubies were used at this time, more for their effects than for their intrinsic value.
All colored stone weights are approximate because the stones are not removed from their settings to preserve the integrity of the mounting.
It is very common to treat gemstones to enhance their clarity or color. This item has not been tested in this regard.
Birthstones
Ruby is the birthstone (or birth month stone) for July.
