About This Piece
A pair of raw red corundum (Ruby) stud earrings with vivid natural colour and an unpolished crystal surface.
Red corundum is the mineral species behind ruby, but in raw form it carries a very different feeling from faceted gemstone jewelry. Instead of symmetry and high polish, what stands out here is texture, saturation, and the earth-formed character of the stone itself.
Corundum has been valued for centuries across different cultures, both as a gem material and as one of the hardest natural minerals. In this raw form, it feels more direct—less refined, more elemental.

Details
Stone: Red Corundum (Ruby)
Source: China
Formation:
Red corundum is a crystalline form of aluminium oxide that develops in metamorphic and igneous environments under high temperature and pressure. Its red colour is caused by trace chromium within the crystal structure. Corundum crystallizes in the trigonal system and is one of the hardest naturally occurring minerals, which is why gem-quality material is prized as ruby and sapphire. In raw form, it often shows a more granular, irregular, or naturally textured surface compared with faceted stones, preserving more of its original mineral character.
Earring material: Surgical stainless steel (316L)
