The ruby is an iconic stone and for those lucky people born in July, it’s their birthstone. I’ve always loved the rich, red color of the ruby. Maybe it’s something from my childhood… watching The Wizard of Oz and Snow White may have influenced that some.

Those ruby slippers and her ruby red lips…

Even now as an adult the ruby is playing a large role in my life.

Yep, that’s my engagement ring.  🙂
It’s a custom piece from J Nelson Designs right here in Wilmington!

I always love helping people find cool jewelry for July birthdays.

Right now, these are two of my favorites at Blue Moon.ruby sterling copper earrings

These handcrafted earrings by Sara Westermark are just divine! Simple and delicate with an organic feel. They are sterling silver with hammered copper hoops and faceted ruby rondelles.

raw ruby sterling ring

A very different feel from my ring but I love it all the same. This ruby and sterling ring from Boutique SunRaye is more rustic and natural. Perfect for a statement ring.
