ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: This yellow gold ring features a ruby composite stone that is prong-set with gleaming, white diamonds. The ring is supported by a ribbed gallery and measures approximately 7/8" diameter on the top of the finger.
- Filling the fissures inside the ruby with a material, such as glass or lead glass makes a remarkable improvement to the transparency of the stone, giving the ruby better beauty, brilliance, and color. Glass filled rubies are more affordable than an untreated ruby. In other words, rubies that have been diffused or are glass filled are less expensive than natural rubies or "heat-treated rubies", making it possible to have larger and more beautiful ruby jewelry at a fraction of the cost of an untreated ruby.
- Composite Rubies are made of a "composition" of genuine, natural, red corundum (ruby) and tinted lead-glass that is bonded together. Composite rubies look like beautiful, bright, red, high quality rubies, but are only a fraction of the price of natural rubies. Composite rubies require special care that is different from natural, treated or untreated, rubies. If your jewelry item contains ruby composite and needs repair or adjustments, it is absolutely necessary to advise your jeweler that they are composites. Do not place composite rubies in chemicals or an ultrasonic jewelry cleaner. Warm water and a soft cloth is the best way to clean composite stones.
- Almost all the rubies used in jewelry are treated or enhanced by various methods that are accepted and approved in the industry. Less than 1% off all the rubies used in jewelry have received no type of treatment.
