Van Cleef & Arpels sources its rubies from Africa and Asia, attentive to the beauty of their color and their profound resplendence. These characteristics bring the stone’s inner substance to life, sublimating its intrinsic charm and singular personality. The stone’s intense, incandescent glow, its nuanced hues ranging from light pink to deep red, as well as its rarity, make the ruby an exceptional gem among precious stones. A ruby of outstanding quality is even rarer than a diamond.
