Ruby

July's fiery and dramatic birthstone is the ruby. Rubies are the only variety of corundum not known as sapphires. Earning their special designation, these precious gemstones are second only to diamonds in hardness and value. With their characteristic red hue, they symbolize romance, wealth, and success. Let the "king of gems" add a shot of red hot color to your jewelry box through earrings, necklaces, rings, or bracelets in a variety of metals and styles.
