Warm red fire
A pear-cut ruby with lab diamond accents
A pear-shaped brilliant ruby of about 2.17 carats, set with lab diamonds.
Spark holds a pear-shaped brilliant ruby of about 2.17 carats at the front of the pendant. The stone measures about 9 by 6 millimeters, and its red tone is rich and warm, with the pear's pointed tip guiding the eye toward the collarbone.
Lab diamond embellishments sit around the ruby and add quick flashes of light beside its deep color. Each lab diamond is grown in a lab with the same chemistry as a mined diamond, so the setting keeps the ruby as the clear center of attention.
Ruby is the July birthstone, which makes Spark a bright gift for a July birthday. Its lively color suits dark knits, black tops and evening outfits, and it keeps a confident look through a long day.
Bold and bright
A necklace that holds the eye at the neckline
A 16 inch chain with a 2 inch extender and about 2.53 grams of metal.
The chain is 16 inches with a 2 inch extender, a length that sits at the collarbone and places the ruby where it is easy to see. The extender lets you lower the pendant when you want a longer, more relaxed line.
The metal weighs about 2.53 grams, a steady weight that suits a pendant worn all day. Yellow gold vermeil adds a golden warmth beside the red, while sterling silver keeps the ruby sharp and cool against dark fabrics.
The meaning of vitality
Ruby is often associated with passion and vitality, the sense of energy that lifts a day and keeps a person moving toward what they care about. Its fiery red has long been linked with courage and an open heart, so Spark suits anyone who likes to bring enthusiasm into everything they do. The meaning is yours to choose, and the necklace makes no promise of a particular result.
Some people give a ruby necklace to mark a July birthday or to a friend with a lively, generous spirit. Others choose one for themselves when they want a piece with a bold, unmistakable color.
Choosing your finish
Yellow gold vermeil adds a warm glow that makes the red look richer, while sterling silver keeps the ruby crisp and sharp, which suits a cool, minimal wardrobe.
Measure a necklace you already wear and check where the pendant sits on your neckline. The extender gives you extra length, so you can try two positions and pick the one that suits the shape of your neckline.
Caring for the ruby and finish
Ruby is durable, but it can still be scratched by harder stones, and heat, lotion and perfume can dull both the stone and the vermeil. Remove the necklace before swimming, showering, exercise and sleep, and keep it away from hot surfaces and sprays.
After wear, wipe the piece with a soft dry cloth and store it in a separate pouch. Keeping it apart from other jewelry protects the ruby, the lab diamonds and the finish, so the red keeps its clear, vivid tone.
Find your metal tone
Two finishes with the same ruby necklace. Choose yellow gold vermeil for a warm glow or sterling silver for a sharp, cool line.

Frequently asked questions
Is the ruby natural?
Yes. Ruby is a natural gemstone, and its red tone varies from one stone to another.
Are the lab diamonds natural?
No. Lab diamonds are grown in a lab rather than mined. They share the chemistry of mined diamonds.
Is this necklace in stock now?
The necklace is sold as a standard item. Check the product page for the delivery estimate shown there before you order.
Can I adjust the length?
Yes. The chain is 16 inches with a 2 inch extender, so the pendant can sit a little lower when you want more room.
Are the finishes solid gold?
No. The gold finish is 18kt yellow gold vermeil over sterling silver, a thin gold layer rather than solid gold.
Does the necklace promise any effect?
No. Ruby is often associated with passion and vitality, and those meanings are yours to choose. The necklace makes no promise of a particular outcome.
Can I wear it in the shower or pool?
Please remove it before swimming, showering or exercise. Water, lotion and chlorine can dull the ruby and the vermeil finish.
How should I clean it?
Wipe gently with a soft dry cloth. Avoid harsh polishes and ultrasonic cleaners, which can damage the ruby and the finish.
Why is it a birthstone necklace?
Ruby is the July birthstone, and the pendant suits anyone born that month. The stone is the same whatever the birth month.
