Wow! When you just gotta have red, that pigeon blood red, and don't feel like coughing up the $5,000 for the real thing, these lab created rubies are just the answer.

Intense, bright red -- heck, I can't get the camera to catch the color -- they glow under the camera flash. But I can tell you this, they are red, red, red -- and well cut, throwing gobs of red fire.

An Oval Basket setting lets the Ruby do it's thing!  The stone weighs a healthy 15 carats, and the mounting is what you'd expect to hold such a nice stone.  Just look at the pictures at how thick the metal is.
