Ruby, Pearl & 18ct Yellow Gold Necklace – Exceptional Colour and Timeless Elegance
This exquisite ruby and pearl necklace in 18ct yellow gold combines vibrant red rubies with the soft lustre of white pearls. At its heart, a striking ruby and mabé pearl pendant creates a luxurious focal point.
The centrepiece features a 0.34ct natural ruby, chosen for its perfect, vibrant red colour. David has rub-over set the ruby in solid 18ct yellow gold, creating a smooth, elegant finish. Furthermore, the setting sits within a beautiful 14.5mm mabé pearl, which adds a lovely contrast of colour and texture.
The mabé pearl sits in a handmade 18ct yellow gold pendant. Its luminous surface beautifully complements the intense red ruby, while the polished gold adds warmth and richness.
The pendant hangs from a wonderful string of natural red cabochon rubies, alternating with 5mm and 7mm white pearls. The cabochon rubies have a combined weight of 48.21ct, creating a striking display of rich, even red colour.
In addition, solid, handmade 18ct yellow gold spacers separate each ruby and pearl. Their polished surfaces catch the light, adding delicate flashes of gold throughout the necklace. As a result, the design feels beautifully balanced, with a lovely rhythm of colour and lustre.
Rubies have long been treasured for their exceptional red colour and rarity. Indeed, the finest stones display a rich, vivid red. Discover more about these remarkable gemstones through the Gemological Institute of America (GIA).
Measuring 18 inches overall, the necklace features an 18ct yellow gold ball catch. Its elegant finish complements the gold pendant and handmade spacers.
