What is the july birthstone?

The passionate red ruby is the birthstone for july. This is considered the most precious of all gemstones. Per carat, a fine ruby, in particular, the Burmese ruby that is larger than 3 carats, is even more precious than a white diamond. The value of a ruby is dependent on its color and clarity. The richer the color, the more precious the stone. The fewer the flaws, the more precious the ruby.

In February 15, 2006, London jeweller Laurence Graff bought a 8.62 ruby ring for $3,637,480 which works out to be $425,000 per carat for that ruby.

Rubies are treasured throughout history, all over the world.

From the bible, during King Solomon's time, Proverbs 31:10 says Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.

In China, way back in 100 b.c., rubies were carried westward from China on the North Silk Road.

Ancient Sanskrit writings regard ruby as the most precious of gemstones.

Ruby symbolizes royalty and vitality. It is also a symbol of love and of courage.

As for the birthday girl, get her a pair of ruby earrings she can wear with her favourite outfit. If you aren't sure whether or not her ears are pierced, you can get her a ruby bracelet instead.

If the birthday month is July, the birthstones would be
