This is Ruby
Few jewellery brands have such an illustrious history as the House of Ruby. Founded in Lahore in 1957, the brand continues to set the standard for the ultimate in fine and high-end designer jewellery.
Design
Ruby’s approach has always been to design around the individual beauty of individual stones by creating the perfect setting for each stone to shine. Each creation begins with a sketch done by hand in meticulous detail. This allows the designer to convey to the craftsmen the fluidity and overall harmony of the design that brings out the collective beauty of both the setting and the stone..

Setting
In creating its fine jewelry designs, the House of Ruby has been a pioneer in strictly utilizing gold & platinum settings that allow diamonds & colored stones to appear as if they are floating in their settings. The most durable precious metal, platinum possesses an ethereal, light color that compliments rather than competes with a diamond’s colorless nature, ensuring that the beauty of the diamond stands at the forefront of each design. We firmly believe that nothing should distract from a diamond's natural brilliance, leading to innovative techniques in craftsmanship, such as the House’s iconic split-prong settings. The setting securely holds the diamond in place, with eight ultra-fine prongs that seamlessly blend into the ring’s design, seeming to disappear behind the radiance of the center stone.
Polishing
In creating a Ruby jewel, what is unseen to the eye is equally as important as the surface presentation. After master craftsmen have placed the diamond, the platinum settings – including those beneath the diamond – are all re-polished to ensure that the luminance of each diamond shines through.
Presentation
After each detail is meticulously reviewed, the finished jewel leaves the workshop. The culmination of efforts and skills between gemologist, designer and craftsman, each jewellery piece represents the high quality standards that are synonymous with the Ruby’s name, and serves as a precious symbol as rare and unique as true love itself.
