Description

Natural raw ruby copper open ring.

Material

Natural gemstones and copper

Size of gemstones are 6-8mm.

The gemstones we use are raw and unpolished, so they might have some” imperfections”. (In our opinion it adds to the beauty and individuality of each piece!)

Jewellery pieces are created by a process called copper electroforming, which allows for the deposition of copper electrolytes over several hours in a copper/acid solution. This results in unique and unpredictable textures, as the entire process is organic.

Copper can potentially turn the skin green as it reacts with the chemicals in some skins. A coat of clear nail polish will prevent this.

About Ruby

About Ruby:

Ruby is one of the four precious gemstones and is part of the corundum family. The name ruby derives from the Latin word rubrum, which means red. Rubies range in shades; from pinkish to blood-red. Ruby and sapphire (the blue form of corundum), are siblings and they are the hardest stones after diamonds, scoring a 9 on the Mohs hardness scale. The first written references to ruby deposits come from the 6^th century AD.

Birthstone: July

Anniversary stone: 15^th and 40^th

Symbolism:

Rubies are associated with intense passion, good luck, contentment, success, energy, enthusiasm and personal inspiration. Some even believe they have the power to attract and maintain love! They were also worn by Burmese soldiers for protection and some still believe them to protect from danger. Rubies are referred to four different times in the Bible, where they are associated with beauty and wisdom.

Packaging

Copper cleaning

Please be aware that copper darkens over time.

We recommend these methods for cleaning:

Copperbrite: Our preferred option for cleaning is Copperbrite, which you can find available here. This specialized solution effectively restores the shine of your copper jewellery.
Home Remedies: You'll also find numerous home remedies online for cleaning copper jewellery. However, please ensure they are safe for jewellery and won't damage the pieces.

Furthermore, with regular wear and handwashing, copper tends to naturally regain its shine.
