Kimberly's Carats

Ruby is one of the most historically significant colored stones. Rubies are mentioned four times in the Bible, in association with attributes like beauty and wisdom. In the ancient language of Sanskrit, ruby is called ratnaraj, or “king of precious stones.”

Meghan's Engagement Ring
 
Royals always make news and often the news involves jewelry. After the birth of her son Archie, Meghan Markle has been seen in public with what appears to be a redesigned engagement ring and a new diamond eternity band - a gift from Prince Harry to commemorate the birth of their first child, their first year anniversary or both. The engagement ring, featuring a diamond from Botswana along with two of Princess Diana's diamonds appears to have been redesigned and set in a mico-pave diamond band instead of the original solid yellow gold band. 
 
July Birthstone
 
July's birthstone is Ruby. There’s no better way to demonstrate your love than by giving a ruby in celebration of a July birthday. Rubies arouse the senses, stir the imagination, and are said to guarantee health, wisdom and wealth. Ruby is a variety of the gem species corundum. It is harder than any natural gemstone except diamond, which means a ruby is durable enough for everyday wear. Fine-quality ruby is extremely rare, and the color of the gem is most important to its value. The most prized color is a medium or medium dark vivid red or slightly purplish red.
