Ruby Gemstone Crocheted Bracelet, jewelry

This stunning Red Ruby bracelet was made by stringing semi-precious garnet stones on the sturdy cord (fireline) and then crocheting them with a tiny hook for hours. The bracelet is so beautiful that you or someone special could wear it for any occasion to dress up an outfit or for a casual day. It measures 7" around and could be stacked with other bracelets. The faceted cut of the rough Ruby brings out the sparkle of the stones, and the gold-filled toggle and findings bring this piece all together. There is a matching necklace if you're interested in purchasing it, too.

A July birthstone, and if you want to know more about Ruby, here's a little info.
Today, you can find Rubies in Macedonia, Mexico, Madagascar, Pakistan, Vietnam, Nepal, Cambodia, Thailand, India, and Greenland. Natural Ruby is one of four “precious” gemstones (including Diamond, Emerald, and Sapphire) known for its rarity, monetary value, and hardness (second only to Diamond). Ruby is red Corundum, an aluminum oxide mineral with chromium responsible for its rich, red color. The name comes from the Latin word Rubeus, meaning “red.” Until 1800, Ruby was recognized as a variety of corundum, red Spinel's, tourmalines, and garnets,  also believed to be Ruby. Ruby is considered a bloodstone, strengthening the heart, myocardium, ventricles, and coronaries and stimulating good circulation and blood flow. It is also an aid in treating disorders or diseases of the heart. Ruby allows the sharing of loving energy despite past hurts, bringing up anger or negative energy for transmutation. Ruby carries the frequency of the enlightened Base Chakra, stimulating the flow of life-force energy or chi through the body. It strengthens the ability to meet one’s needs and manifest one’s desires and is potent in activating the kundalini.
