July Birthstone - Ruby

Gemondo presents our extensive high quality and affordable July Birthstone - Ruby Jewellery Collection.  Set in yellow gold, white gold and hallmarked 925 sterling silver this collection has something for everyone's tastes.

Ruby jewellery has been known as the July birthstone since the creation of the Gregorian calendar. This calendar had matching poems for every birthstone, the poem for the July birthstone is below:

'The gleaming ruby should adorn,
All those who in July are born,
For thus they'll be exempt and free,
From lover's doubts and anxiety.'

Known as the 'Gem of Summer', ruby is the red variety of corundum and is the sister-stone of sapphire. Rubies symbolise love and, in the past, it was believed they possessed the power to bestow peace and harmony. Also the wearer of a ruby was thought to be protected from discord and all perils of war.
