Francesca - authentic 29.5 carat Star Ruby 22K Gold over .925 Sterling Silver handcrafted Pendant

This Star Ruby pendant in sterling silver showcases a substantial 29.5 carat oval cabochon in deep red. The Francesca belongs to our Pattaya Collection and pairs the rare asterism effect of natural Star Ruby with 22K gold overlay on solid .925 silver.

Star Ruby ranks 9 on the Mohs hardness scale, making it one of the most durable colored gemstones available. The six-rayed star visible across the stone's surface occurs when light reflects off needle-like rutile inclusions within the corundum crystal. Your pendant measures 1 3/4 inches long, 1 inch wide, and 7/8 inch thick. Total weight: 20.20 grams. The polished gold bezel frames the translucent red stone while allowing light to interact with the asterism phenomenon.

Wear this bold piece with evening attire or let it anchor a business ensemble. The substantial carat weight makes a statement without overwhelming. SilverRush Style has specialized in natural stone jewelry since 2005. All orders ship free within the United States. Each piece carries the .925 sterling silver stamp.
