The intersting story of Ruby.

This is my very first blog post and YAY I finally have a blog now!

 Ruby, the birthstone of July, associated with the zodiac signs of Cancer, Leo, Sagittarius and Scorpio, is one of the most precious gemstone. The name Ruby, is taken from the Latin word ruber, meaning “red”.

An interesting story I want to quote:
Known as the King of Gemstones since ancient times , Ruby has been considered to be a protective stone providing the wearer with benefits such as invulnerability and preserved health. In addition to this, Rubies inspire creativity, wisdom and love, as well as enhancing self-reliance / confidence and increasing spirituality. Rubies worn by men signified manhood and nobility. Rubies worn by women were said to invoke passion and power. Improved circulation is one of the major perceived medical benefits of Ruby gems. Fire, blood and warmth are further properties assiciated with the Ruby.

I'm obsessed with Ruby for a long while and it is truly beautiful. I'm think about making more ruby jewelry for people who are born in July. The dark red with sterling silver is just perfect!
