The Rough Borneo Ruby Ring stands unpolished yet powerful—raw, untamed, and undeniably real. Hidden gems trace the band, subtle yet ever-present. Slip it on, feel its weight, and embrace something deeper: a love that doesn’t need validation, only the strength to exist as it is.

Ruby is the birthstone of July, and is associated with all forms of love, from faithful and courtly commitment to wild and passionate sensuality.
This ring features ethically sourced rubies. Their color is between red ruby and pink sapphire. We buy them straight from a group of indigenous people in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia. They receive fair pay, and we can guarantee you that these rubies are conflict free and untreated.
It can take weeks for one person to find enough of these rough rubies to make a ring. Trust me when I say that this pink ruby ring is something truly special.
Our Hidden Gems Jewelry is our love letter to raw gemstones. Each rough gemstone, with its unpolished charm, carries a story shaped by nature.
Crafted by hand using recycled sterling silver or our signature ethical gold, Hidden Gems jewelry is for those who see beauty in the raw and the real. For the dreamers, the givers, and the ones who live and love intensely.
These make such meaningful gifts too! Mothers’ rings, friendship rings, engagement rings, or even wedding bands.
This is raw gemstone jewelry for everyday wear, for moments that matter, and speaks to those seeking more from their jewelry - more meaning, more story, more soul. Jewelry to make you feel connected, grounded, and one of a kind.
The most magnificent, Ruby is the birthstone for July. It lets you experience love in all its hot, sweaty forms, from wild sensuality to intimate communion. It’s a stone that intensifies passion in committed relationships – it ignites a soulful fire from kindling that has been collected over time, the kind that’s got a warm, safe slow-burning light. Ruby’s eccentric power lets you shine through the crowd. It lets you let your hair down, without ever looking untamed.
Most powerful at a full moon, the fiery glow of a ruby is said to help overcome exhaustion and lethargy. True to its rich hue, it’s said a ruby stirs the blood, stimulates circulation to amplify energy – this is the stone to magnify your inner beauty and gives you that radiating facial glow.
