One strand of about 37.5 cm of faceted round ruby beads, in a deep raspberry pink. Here and there, a brighter bead leans toward fuchsia. This ornamental-grade ruby is opaque and veined, with a soft, matte sheen reminiscent of rough stone.
Characteristics:
The 4 mm size is suitable for all creations: stretch bracelets or cable bracelets, necklaces, earrings. This intense pink stands out especially with gold tones. With a hole of about 0.8 mm, use a 0.5 to 0.6 mm elastic thread, a 0.38 mm cable or a 0.4 mm nylon thread. This ruby is also available in a lot of 10 beads.
A bit of gemology: ruby is a corundum, an aluminum oxide (Al₂O₃), colored red by traces of chromium. With a hardness of 9 on the Mohs scale, it is surpassed only by diamond. “Ornamental grade” refers to opaque crystals rich in inclusions. They are too cloudy to be cut as jewelry gems, but perfect for beads that retain all the strength of corundum. Its name comes from the Latin ruber, “red.” Rubies of this grade come mainly from India, Madagascar, Tanzania and Mozambique.
In lithotherapy: ruby is associated with the root chakra. As a stone of vitality, it is believed to stimulate energy, courage and passion.
100% natural product: the size, shape, shade and number of beads may vary slightly from one strand to another. The dimensions and quantities are given for guidance only.
