Natural and untreated gemstones for your jewelry

PRECIOUS RED GEMSTONES

For centuries, red gemstones have been associated with passion, love, power or strength. Their intense and saturated color have adorned all kinds of jewelry, with some very famous pieces such as the Black Prince’s Ruby that adorns the Crown of England and is actually a spinel.

Red gems are very RARE and the pure red color without orange, pink, purple or brown hues is very valuable, making these gems true treasures.


If you are looking for a red gem for an engagement ring or any type of personalized jewelry, you are a collector or simply want your birthstone, you are in the right place.

Gems that are mounted in pieces of daily use must have a minimum hardness of 7 on the Mohs scale, that does not mean that you cannot use stones with lower hardness, you will simply have to mount them in pieces where they cannot easily chip or break, and you will have to treat them with more care.
