Contemporary 9ct Yellow Gold Star Ruby Ring
Please note, boxes are for display only unless otherwise stated.
Elegant, intriguing, and just a little bit mysterious — this contemporary 9-carat yellow gold star Ruby ring is a piece that invites a second look.
Its design is classic and beautifully simple, allowing the gemstone to take centre stage: a natural, high-domed cabochon approximately 4.2ct Ruby with a wonderfully rich, plum-purple hue that glows warmly against the gold.
What makes this ring truly special is the six-rayed star that shimmers across the surface of the Ruby when viewed under direct light — a natural optical effect known as asterism. Caused by fine needle-like inclusions within the stone, this phenomenon gives the gem a magical, almost celestial quality. It’s the kind of gemstone that feels alive, shifting and glinting as you move your hand.
While this Ruby isn’t of museum quality — it shows natural inclusions and a slightly uneven tone — these characteristics add to its charm and authenticity. The star is clearly visible, and the stone’s colour and glow make it genuinely captivating to look at.
The Ruby is bezel-set into a smooth, tapering gold shank that feels substantial yet comfortable on the finger. The ring’s sleek, low-profile design makes it a pleasure to wear every day, while its exotic gemstone ensures it never goes unnoticed.
Perfect for those who love unique and unusual gemstones, this star Ruby ring offers a touch of the extraordinary — a wearable piece of natural wonder that’s both striking and full of character.
