The Joli Cœur necklace in white gold and ruby

The Joli Cœur necklace in white gold and ruby is characterised by its three-claw setting, which gives the pendant a triangular silhouette, while the ruby is cut in the round. The red of the stone is sublimated by the whiteness of the white gold, and the diamond-link chain brings out the overall brilliance of the jewel. The result is a refined yet feminine piece that's sure to make hearts tumble!

For the Little Story

Ruby is a variety of corundum with a fiery colour, which is the result of the presence of traces of chromium in its crystalline structure. With its remarkable hardness of 9 on the Mohs scale, ruby ranks just behind diamond in terms of scratch resistance, making it an ideal choice for everyday jewellery. Originating deep in the Earth, the gem forms through complex geological processes, creating crystals of rare beauty. Carrying the energy of fire, rubies have been a source of inspiration for jewellery designers for centuries. Its intense hue and chromatic depth make it a coveted gem, perfect for adorning exceptional rings, necklaces and earrings.

Jeweller's word

To create the illusion of a triangular shape for the pendant, despite the ruby being round brilliant cut, we have strategically placed two claws three-quarters of a turn around the gem, while the third is positioned at noon. A thin clasp is carefully placed above this third claw, ensuring the pendant is worn in a balanced manner.
