Each month's birthstone carries its own color, meaning, and symbolism passed down over time.
The ruby is the gem of passion, power, and the life force, long crowned the king of precious stones.
Vivid red, from pinkish to deep crimson
The ruby resonates with Cancer and the radiant confidence of Leo, fueling warmth and leadership.
It is believed to ignite vitality, boost courage and circulation, and stir warmth, love, and ambition in the wearer.
A bold gift for a July birthday, a 15th or 40th anniversary, or anyone with a fiery, passionate spirit.
One of the hardest gems, ruby is durable, but still clean with warm soapy water and avoid harsh chemicals.
