A smaller, wearable size

At 8.8 mm, this star ruby sits neatly on a lady's finger without standing too tall. It also suits a dainty pendant on a fine chain, or a ring you wear daily.

Photographing the star

View it under a single bulb or direct sun rather than soft shop lighting. Diffused light hides the star, while one point of light brings it out.

About Star Ruby

Star ruby is red corundum cut as a domed cabochon to show a six-rayed star. The star, called asterism, comes from fine rutile needles inside the stone reflecting light.

  • Mineral: Corundum
  • Hardness: 9 on the Mohs scale
  • Main sources: Myanmar (Burma), Sri Lanka, Vietnam, India
  • Treatments: Star rubies may be heated, and some on the market are glass-filled or have diffused stars; ask us for the lab report on any stone to see its treatment.
  • Care: Wash with warm soapy water and a soft brush, and store it separately so the dome does not get scuffed.
