Rings set with Burmese rubies
Rings set with Burmese rubies occupy an essential place in 20th-century French jewelry. Sourced from the famous Mogok mines in Burma, these stones are distinguished by their deep red color, sometimes with a slight bluish tint, and their intense fluorescence due to a high chromium content. These optical characteristics give the ruby an incomparable brilliance and depth.
In France, the settings are generally made of 18-karat gold or platinum, depending on the aesthetics of the period. Rubies are often cut into oval or cushion shapes and enhanced by a surround of brilliant-cut or baguette-cut diamonds, emphasizing the purity and geometry of the center stone. The prong, closed, or bezel setting is chosen according to the hardness and internal structure of the ruby, which often has natural inclusions.
The precision of the setting and the symmetry of the compositions are testament to French jewelry expertise, which combines technical rigor with a sense of proportion. These rings remain highly prized today for the quality of their gems, the complexity of their design, and the elegance of their execution.
