Ruby Rings
Lab-created ruby rings center a vivid red oval stone in bright 925 sterling silver — the same fiery colour and hardness as a mined ruby, at a far more approachable price. Each design frames the red center with a sparkling white cubic-zirconia pavé band, from £95.95.
Ruby is the July birthstone and a symbol of love and passion — a bold, hard-wearing coloured-stone choice for birthdays, anniversaries and everyday statement style.
Why Lab-Created Ruby
A lab-created ruby is real ruby — corundum grown in a lab, with the same vivid red and the same 9 on the Mohs hardness scale as a mined stone. It offers fewer inclusions, a more consistent colour, and an ethical, affordable alternative to mined rubies.
How to Style a Ruby Ring
Red is a confident, romantic colour that stands out against silver. Wear a ruby ring as a coloured-stone engagement or promise ring, a July birthstone gift, or a statement piece for date nights and celebrations.
Caring for Your Ruby Ring
Ruby is corundum at Mohs 9 — extremely durable for daily wear. Clean it with warm soapy water and a soft brush, avoid ultrasonic cleaners (which can loosen the cubic-zirconia pavé), and store it separately. Explore our sapphire rings and emerald rings, or browse all sterling silver rings for women.
Frequently asked questions
Is a lab-created ruby a real ruby?
Yes. A lab-created ruby is genuine ruby — the same mineral (corundum), the same hardness and the same red colour as a mined ruby, simply grown in a lab and disclosed as lab-created per FTC guidelines.
How durable is a ruby ring for daily wear?
Very. Ruby is corundum, rating 9 on the Mohs hardness scale (the same as sapphire and second only to diamond), so it holds up beautifully to daily and engagement-ring wear. The pavé accents are white cubic zirconia.
Is ruby a birthstone?
Ruby is the birthstone for July and the traditional gemstone for 15th and 40th wedding anniversaries.
What metal are your ruby rings?
Solid 925 sterling silver, hypoallergenic and 925-stamped, with a bright polished finish.
How do I care for my ruby ring?
Wipe it with a soft cloth and clean it with warm soapy water and a soft brush. Avoid harsh chemicals and ultrasonic cleaners, and store it separately to protect the cubic-zirconia accents.
