But hold onto your hats, lovely people, because the material of choice for this stunner is solid 14ct Yellow Gold.

This pendant can be customised to your heart's desire with created Alexandrite, Emerald, or Sapphire, and a selection of natural gems including Alexandrite, Amethyst, Aquamarine, Sapphire, Zircon, Citrine, Diamond, Emerald, Garnet, Peridot, Tourmaline, Ruby, or White Sapphire. And if you have your heart set on a custom piece with a different gemstone, just shoot me a message, and we can make that dream a reality!

So, I'm giving you the freedom to mix and match your perfect combo. And if you're wondering where to find the ideal chain to complement this piece, I've got a humble recommendation right here.
And here's a little heads-up: this stunning pendant is made to order and ships from the USA. So, keep in mind that it might take 6-8 weeks for delivery, although in my experience, it's often quicker – sometimes as fast as a fortnight!

A lot of the rubies sold today were not mined from the earth but were created in a lab. Synthetic Rubies (also known as created, cultured, or lab-grown Rubies) are created through an artificial process that usually involves high temperature and pressure.
It should be noted that artificially produced Rubies are not the same as fake Rubies, which have a different chemical structure from that of natural Rubies. From a chemical standpoint, lab-created Rubies are no different from natural ones and are considered real Rubies.
Although synthetic and natural Rubies are virtually identical, some very subtle differences can be detected with the appropriate equipment by a trained Gemologist.
In 1902, French chemist Auguste Verneuil pioneered a process for creating synthetic Sapphire crystals. Chemical additives can produce artificial versions of Ruby and all the other natural Sapphire colours, and even create new, never-before-seen hues. Lab-created gems are virtually identical to mined ones in terms of chemical, physical, and optical properties, but they tend to have fewer flaws and come at a lower cost. So, the more rare and costly natural gems like Sapphires, Emeralds, and Rubies now have lab-created alternatives that are gaining popularity.
