Make a bold statement with this exceptional approximately 10.5 carat (12 × 16 mm) Drop Cut lab-grown ruby. Combining a richly saturated red colour with outstanding clarity and brilliance, this impressive gem offers the beauty of genuine ruby in a striking, elegant silhouette ideal for high-impact jewellery designs.

Lab-grown rubies are real rubies. They possess the same chemical composition (Al₂O₃ with chromium), crystal structure, hardness, and optical properties as natural ruby. The only difference is their origin.

Every Gemdrop® gem is individually scientifically verified and permanently recorded within the Gemdrop Verification Database, providing complete transparency and confidence in exactly what you are purchasing.

A REAL RUBY. CREATED THROUGH SCIENCE.

This gem was grown using the Flame Fusion (Verneuil) process, a well-established technique for producing gem-quality corundum, within one of the world's leading high-technology gem-growing laboratories. Utilising advanced crystal growth systems and carefully controlled production conditions, these facilities produce ruby crystals with exceptional optical quality, colour consistency, and clarity.

The resulting crystal is genuine ruby—not a simulant or imitation—with the same physical, chemical, and optical properties as ruby formed naturally within the Earth.

ELEGANT PROPORTIONS. EXCEPTIONAL BRILLIANCE.

The Drop Cut combines the brilliance of a round cut with the graceful elegance of a marquise, creating a timeless teardrop silhouette that elongates the appearance of jewellery while delivering lively sparkle and dramatic flashes of light. This versatile cut is equally at home in statement pendants, elegant earrings, cocktail rings, and bespoke jewellery creations.

Ruby is one of the world's most durable gem materials, with a Mohs hardness of 9, making it highly resistant to scratching and exceptionally well suited to jewellery designed for a lifetime of wear.

Every Gemdrop® gem undergoes scientific verification before being permanently recorded within the Gemdrop Verification Database.

Each verification record includes detailed gemological information including identity, origin, growth method, dimensions, crystal system, and key physical properties, providing complete transparency and long-term confidence in your purchase.
