The heart-shaped setting on this ring isn't solid. It's an open frame that creates a little bit of air around the ruby, so you see the gold outline and the stone as two separate shapes that work together.

You're looking at a polished 14k gold ring with a simple, rounded band. At its centre is a heart-shaped bezel that holds a second, smaller heart: a faceted ruby. The stone is secured by three tiny gold prongs inside the frame, leaving negative space between the ruby and the outer setting. Because the ruby is faceted, its colour and brightness will shift depending on how the light hits it.

The band and setting are made from solid 14k gold, not plated. It’s 58.3% pure gold mixed with other alloys for strength, which means it's tough enough for you to wear every day without worrying about it bending or scratching easily. Solid gold won't tarnish or turn your skin a different colour. The centre stone is a ruby, which is one of the hardest gemstones available. That means it’s highly resistant to the scuffs and scrapes of daily life.

People choose this ring because the design has more dimension than a standard solitaire. The open frame around the stone gives it a bit of visual weight and a three-dimensional quality, but the ring itself still has a slender profile that's comfortable for everyday wear.
