It forms as a secondary mineral in the oxidation zone of copper deposits, in other words where copper-bearing rock weathers. Its color comes from the copper itself, which makes up about 57 percent of the mineral. That's why it only comes in shades of green. Its light and dark bands are characteristic; they form as it grows in concentric layers and give every stone its own pattern.

Unlike simple gold plating, which is only a wafer-thin surface layer, wears off over time, and fades fairly quickly, 14K gold-filled keeps its warm gold tone for years. The ruby is polished into a soft teardrop shape and drilled, so it sits directly on the fine chain without a setting and stays centered as you wear it. Each stone is selected individually and strung by hand. The teardrop measures about 8 to 10 mm. You choose the length when you order: 45 cm (17.7 in) or 40 cm (15.7 in).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMeaning of the Stone\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Sanskrit, ruby is called ratnaraj, king of gems.
