The ruby is completely encased in a smooth, rounded frame of gold. This bezel setting protects the stone and gives the pendant a satisfying, solid feel. The little diamond accent sits right on top, adding a small point of light.
An 18-inch gold link chain holds a two-part pendant. The main feature is an emerald-cut ruby, held securely in a thick, polished gold frame that mirrors its rectangular shape. The facets inside the ruby catch light from different angles, showing flashes of deep red and magenta. Sitting directly above it is a small, round brilliant-cut diamond, also wrapped in its own circular gold bezel. The entire piece has a bright, polished finish.
We make this necklace from solid 14-karat gold, not plated or filled. It’s 58.3% pure gold alloyed for strength, which means it won't tarnish and is tough enough for you to wear every day without worrying about scratches. The centrepiece is a lab-grown ruby. It has the same vibrant colour and durability as a mined ruby, but it's created with a much lighter footprint. That little sparkle on top is a diamond, set to last.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the bezel setting on the Gold-Framed Ruby Necklace snag on my sweaters?
No, the bezel setting should not snag on your clothing. We designed the gold frame that holds the ruby to be completely smooth and rounded, with no prongs or sharp edges. This creates a seamless profile that glides over fabric, so you can wear it with your favourite knits without worry.
Is it safe to shower or sleep while wearing my solid gold ruby necklace?
Yes, you can safely shower and sleep in this necklace. It's made from solid 14k gold, which won't tarnish or be damaged by water. However, soaps and lotions can build up behind the stones over time, dulling their sparkle. We recommend a simple cleaning with warm water and mild soap occasionally.
How long is the chain on the Jewel Light Necklace and where will the ruby pendant sit on my neck?
The chain is 18 inches long. For most people, this length allows the ruby pendant to rest just below the collarbone. It's a very common and versatile length that sits well with crewnecks and V-necks alike. If you need a different length, you can contact us for custom options.
