The birthstone for July is rubies! They’re also given for the 15th and 40th wedding anniversaries. The ruby is one of the most popular precious gemstones and holds up well when worn daily. Next to fancy color diamonds, rubies are the most expensive gemstones per carat. Whether you’re shopping for a piece of ruby jewelry because it’s your birthstone, to celebrate an anniversary, or just because, it’s a gorgeous gemstone to own!
