Leaf / nature-inspired
Solid white gold
Two rings, one set
This is a two-piece set — an engagement ring with the oval ruby center and a matching leaf-detailed band, designed to nest together. The men's wedding band shown is sold separately.
The oval ruby center
At the heart of the set is a lab-grown ruby, oval cut, about 8.0×6.0 mm and 1.4 carats, in a vivid, passionate red. This is a lab-grown (lab-created) ruby — the same corundum mineral and rich red color as natural ruby, grown ethically for consistent color and clarity. Ruby is exceptionally durable at Mohs 9, second only to diamond, and is the birthstone for July. For centuries ruby has symbolized love, passion and vitality — our guide to ruby meaning and symbolism explores the lore behind the stone.
Black onyx accents
Winding leaf detailing is set with natural black onyx accents that add bold, mysterious contrast against the red ruby. Black onyx is a natural opaque chalcedony (a member of the quartz family), Mohs 6.5–7; it is commonly color-enhanced to deepen its black — a standard, accepted treatment.
Choose your metal & karat
The set is made in solid white gold or platinum — never plated or filled — so the cool color runs all the way through. Choose the metal that suits you:
White gold is gold alloyed with white metals and finished with rhodium for a bright cool-white; platinum is naturally white and especially dense and durable. Our 10K vs 14K vs 18K karat guide explains the differences. Prefer yellow or rose gold? This set can be made in either on request — contact us for a custom quote.

Frequently asked questions
What's included in the set?
Two pieces — an engagement ring with the oval ruby center and a matching leaf-detailed band. The men's wedding band shown is sold separately.
Is the ruby natural or lab-grown?
It's a lab-grown (lab-created) ruby — the same corundum mineral and rich red color as natural ruby, with the same Mohs 9 hardness, grown ethically for consistent color and clarity at a fraction of the cost of a fine natural ruby.
Is a lab-grown ruby a real ruby?
Yes — a lab-grown ruby is a real ruby (corundum), chemically and physically the same as a mined ruby. The difference is that it's created in a lab rather than mined.
Are the black onyx accents natural?
Yes — the accents are natural black onyx, an opaque chalcedony (quartz family). Onyx is very commonly color-enhanced to deepen its black tone, a standard, accepted treatment.
How durable is the set?
Ruby is Mohs 9 and very durable, while the onyx accents are softer at Mohs 6.5–7, so the set benefits from gentle care and protection from hard knocks.
What metals can I choose?
Solid 10K, 14K or 18K white gold, or platinum, from the drop-down. Yellow or rose gold are available on request — contact us for a custom quote.
Is the metal solid or plated?
Always solid. The metal runs through the entire piece, so it will never wear off or expose a base metal underneath.
What's the difference between white gold and platinum?
White gold is gold alloyed with white metals and rhodium-finished for a bright cool-white; platinum is naturally white and especially dense and durable. Both look similar; platinum is heavier and premium.
What's the difference between 10K, 14K and 18K?
Higher karats hold more pure gold but are a little softer; lower karats are harder and more affordable. See our karat comparison guide for details.
How do I find my ring size?
Use our ring size guide. The set is made to order in sizes 3 to 11, including half and quarter sizes.
Is engraving included?
Yes — complimentary engraving of up to 16 characters is included. Add your text at checkout.
How long until it ships?
Each set is handmade to order and typically ships within 2–3 weeks.
