July Birthstone
Ruby
Rubies have been the gemstone of choice for royalty ever since their appearance along China's North Silk Road as early as 200 BC... Yet some of the most exquisite rubies in royal history were worn by none other than Queen Victoria.
Endlessly versatile, boldly radiant, and long believed to be symbolic of passion, protection, and prosperity, rubies remain a coveted gem whose popularity goes well beyond its reputation as July's birthstone.
