Your Questions About Ruby Rings In Yellow Gold
August 2nd, 2011 by Diamond Lover

Betty asks…

Would it be safe to wear my rolex/diamond ruby ring/yellow Gold crucifix to school?

As I've never been to a public school, but I'm going next year. so as my question says, would it be ok to wear my yacht master/red ruby diamond pinkie ring/gold crucifix/yellow gold bracelet to my new public school? It's not a ghetto school, its small. Maybe seven hundred. I've heard of iPod getting stolen there because kids leave them in their backpacks or lockers, but not pick pocketed or anything.

Diamond Lover answers:

No. Unfortunately, it only takes one thief to take your treasures. I would leave such precious items at home.

Sandy asks…

Why don't people like yellow gold rings anymore?

When I got married, I really wanted a yellow gold ring. I also wanted a ruby center with little diamonds on the side instead of a diamond center. It was really hard to find that combination in yellow gold. Even the diamond engagement rings were all in white gold.

I have an olive tone to my skin and white gold looks horrible on me. All the jewelers I spoke with tried to convince me to go with white gold. I finally found exactly what I was looking for, but it took a while. I'm just wondering, why is it so hard to find yellow gold anymore? I know, in my mother's day, it was very popular.

Diamond Lover answers:

It's a fashion trend, Hon... yes, even in jewelry and metal preferences, there are trends... right now it's white gold... and not a very good quality either because jewelers are plating it in rhodium to hide the fact it's off color...

I don't know WHAT the problem is with today's white gold. I won't buy it unless it's an estate piece or made before 1980.

Anyway my wife's current bridal set is yellow gold...and she went with her heart's preference - the engagement ring has gemstones with diamonds as an accent only. We selected yellow gold because the quality of the white gold nowadays is questionable, and since most of my good jewelry is either white gold (old) or sterling, I wanted the bridal rings to stand out....obviously I have no problems mixing metals.

Glad you found exactly what you wanted and didn't kow-tow to a trend you don't care for - it is always nice to find a reliable jeweler you can trust and work with...

One last thought: I just don't get people saying yellow gold isn't 'classy' or it's 'out dated'... that's trendy talk, not fact... opinions influenced by what is being pushed by the jewelry market today... nothing compares to the warm glow of yellow gold, or the soft silvery-gray sheen of platinum or good white gold, or the brilliant mirror brightness of sterling silver. It's all personal preference.

Ruth asks…

Is it ok to wear gold and silver rings together?

I prefer silver or white gold jewelry. However, I have a yellow gold and ruby ring that was my grandmother's that I wear in remembrance of her. It's just a little piece of her that I like to keep close. I feel like if I wear any other rings on that hand, they should be gold, but I don't really like gold. What are my options? My wedding set is silver and I wear on my left hand (obviously lol) and I wear my grandmother's ring on my middle finger on my right hand. Everything else (necklaces, bracelets, etc.) is silver or white gold... is it ok? Or does it look tacky?

Diamond Lover answers:

I think it be fine... As with many things you can make your jewelry your own fashion statement - wear it with confidence. I love yellow gold - you might want to give it more of chance in your mind's eye...

Of course, you can also place the ring on a necklace and wear it "hidden," if you want to have her near you.

Mary asks…

How much would it cost to get a ruby ring reset?

I have a ring with a 3x5mm ruby set in 14k yellow gold. I don't like the style of the band, and I don't wear yellow gold. I'm thinking about getting it reset into a white gold band, and maybe adding two tiny diamonds from a pair of earrings that I don't wear very often. I think it would make a much nicer ring, but what would the price range for this be?

Diamond Lover answers:

I would guess somewhere in the neighborhood of $15-$20 to set the ruby, if it is a prong setting. A bezel setting would cost $20 for the 2 small diamonds - I would use prong setting if they are not too small - if smaller than 2mm, you could set them with some beads (bead setting) in the ring shank.

Chris asks…

What do you think of yellow gold jewelry?

I've recently started wearing a yellow gold army ring...it doesn't have the antique finish, it is just gold with the ruby. My Grandpa gave it to me when I was a junior in high school, and I wore it for a few years then put it up. I recently graduated college, and instead of a class ring I decided to wear it to honor my Grandpa who died before I was able to graduate college. He got it in 1939 after he enlisted in the military. My thing is, it is a little flashy, and most people don't wear yellow gold jewelry. I like it, but it stands out. Do you think people will look at me funny because I wear it?

This is what it looks like, except it has a ruby stone and does not have any black around the letters, it is only gold.

Diamond Lover answers:

Wear it - first, it is a nice looking ring. Second, you are honoring your grandfather and the army. Jewelry should express your desires and personality, not what is "fashionable" at the moment.

I don't know why anyone would think it funny - unless they are very shallow...
