The Oval Halo Cluster Ring is a regal, vintage-inspired piece — an oval red centre framed by a starburst halo of sparkling white stones, on an open band that adjusts to fit.
An oval ruby (6x8mm) is cradled in a double halo: an inner ring of small round white cubic-zirconia and an outer starburst of alternating pear-shaped and round white cubic-zirconia in a floral sunburst. The open, adjustable band makes it easy to size and comfortable to wear, all in bright 925 sterling silver — a Victorian, ‘royal’ look at an everyday price.

A lab-grown ruby is a real ruby — the same mineral, hardness and sparkle as a mined stone, simply grown in a controlled lab. IfShe chooses lab-grown for richer colour, cleaner stones and conflict-free value. Every stone is disclosed as lab-created.
Frequently asked questions
Is your lab-created ruby a real ruby?
Yes. A lab-created (lab-grown) ruby is genuine ruby — the same mineral (corundum), the same hardness and the same vivid red as a mined ruby, simply grown in a lab. We disclose every stone as lab-created in line with FTC guidelines.
How is a lab ruby different from a natural one?
They share the same makeup and look, but lab rubies have fewer inclusions and a more consistent red — far more affordable than a mined ruby and ethically grown.
Is a ruby ring durable enough for everyday 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 for daily and engagement-ring wear. The pavé accents are white cubic zirconia.
Is ruby a birthstone?
Yes. Ruby is the birthstone for July and the traditional gemstone for 15th and 40th wedding anniversaries, making a ruby ring a heartfelt birthday or anniversary gift.
How do I care for my ruby ring?
Wipe it with a soft cloth and clean it occasionally with warm soapy water and a soft brush. Avoid harsh chemicals and ultrasonic cleaners, remove it before chores or swimming, and store it separately to protect the cubic-zirconia accents.
