This ring shines. Because in a wide, organically shaped setting made of warm, high-carat yellow gold, it presents a wonderful ruby in fiery red. The ruby weighs 0.46 carats. The intense red of the gemstone harmonizes wonderfully with the rich gold color. No gemstone has been associated with passionate love in history and the arts as often as the ruby. It was its color alone that prompted Robert Herrick to compare it to the rosy mouth of his beloved Juliet. Oscar Wilde also compared the red of the ruby to the color of the heart itself in his fairy tale "The Nightingale and the Rose", and William Blake spoke of the "rubies and pearls" of the loving gaze. "Rubies are particularly suitable for young lovers [...] In general, it is considered the symbol of the most passionate and ardent love," the German ladies' newspaper Bazar announced in November 1886. According to the hallmark, the ring was made in the old Polish royal city of Krakow and dates from around 1975. The ruby was set into the ring in our workshop as the original stone had been lost.
