A lotus in full bloom, rendered in warm rose gold. The Eva oval ruby engagement ring cradles a generous oval genuine lab-grown ruby in a vintage lotus-flower setting, its deep-red fire framed by petals of bright simulated diamond. Crafted in 14K rose gold vermeil over sterling silver 925, it is a romantic, non-traditional proposal ring for anyone who wants their love story told in red.

A vintage lotus, cast in rose gold
The Eva takes its cue from Art Deco and Victorian floral jewelry, wrapping the center ruby in a sculpted lotus-flower motif that unfurls around the stone like petals opening to the light. It is a design for the romantic who finds a plain solitaire a little too expected — every curve of the setting carries meaning. If botanical, fantasy-leaning silhouettes speak to you, you will find kindred designs across our nature-inspired engagement rings and the wider ruby engagement rings collection.
The genuine lab-grown ruby
At the heart of the Eva sits a genuine lab-grown ruby — real corundum, the very same mineral as mined ruby, with an identical chemistry, a rich red hue and a Mohs hardness of 9. That places it second only to diamond for scratch resistance, which is exactly why ruby has crowned engagement rings for centuries. Grown in a controlled setting rather than pulled from the earth, it delivers the depth of color and daily-wear durability ruby is loved for, with a fully traceable, conflict-free origin. To understand why couples keep returning to this stone, our guide to ruby meaning is a lovely place to begin, and our red engagement rings guide shows how to style it.
Petals of bright accent sparkle
Framing the ruby, a scatter of simulated diamond (CZ) accents catches the light along the lotus petals, adding a crisp white shimmer that makes the red glow even deeper. It is a bright, budget-friendly way to add classic engagement-ring sparkle without competing with the center stone. Prefer lab-grown diamond accents on a solid-gold version? Message us and we will tailor it.
Warm 14K rose gold vermeil
The Eva is crafted in 14K rose gold vermeil over sterling silver 925 — a solid sterling silver core wrapped in a generous layer of real 14K rose gold. The result is the soft, dusty-pink warmth of rose gold, a tone that flatters ruby beautifully, letting the red read even richer against the blush metal. You will find the same warm colorway across our ruby jewelry range.
What ruby symbolizes
Long called the "king of gems," ruby has stood for love, passion, courage and vitality across cultures for thousands of years. It is the July birthstone and the traditional gift for 15th and 40th wedding anniversaries — a fitting emblem for a bond you intend to keep burning bright. For a fuller history, see our July birthstone guide, and if you are weighing red stones against one another, our garnet vs ruby comparison lays it out clearly.

Frequently asked questions
Is the ruby a real ruby?
Yes. The center is a genuine lab-grown ruby — real corundum, the same mineral as mined ruby, with the same chemistry, color and a Mohs hardness of 9. It is a true ruby, simply grown in a controlled setting rather than mined.
What is rose gold vermeil?
Rose gold vermeil is real 14K rose gold bonded over a solid sterling silver 925 core. You get the warm, golden look of rose gold at an easier price. If you would prefer gold all the way through, the same design is also available in solid gold.
How durable is ruby for everyday wear?
Very. Ruby sits at 9 on the Mohs scale, second only to diamond, which makes it one of the toughest gemstones you can wear daily. It has been used in engagement rings for centuries for exactly this reason.
What are the accent stones?
The petals are set with simulated diamond (CZ), which adds a bright, crisp sparkle around the ruby. If you would like lab-grown diamond accents on a solid-gold version, message us for a custom quote.
How big is the center ruby?
The oval ruby measures 7.0 x 9.0 mm, roughly 2.0 carats. It reads as a generous, confident center stone without feeling oversized on the finger.
Can it be worn as an engagement or promise ring?
Absolutely. The Eva works beautifully as a non-traditional engagement ring, a promise ring or a meaningful July birthday gift — the lotus setting gives it the presence of a proposal piece.
Will the sterling silver turn my finger green?
No. Genuine 925 sterling silver does not turn skin green, and here it sits beneath the rose gold layer anyway. The ring is nickel-free and hypoallergenic.
Can I have it engraved?
Yes. You can add a personal engraving of up to 16 characters at checkout — a date, initials or a short message. Engraved pieces are final sale, so please double-check spelling.
What size should I order?
Select your ring size at checkout. If you are unsure or between sizes, contact us for guidance. Resizing is available and starts from a modest fee.
Are the stones ethically sourced?
Yes. The lab-grown ruby requires no mining and is fully traceable, and all accent stones are ethically sourced, so you can wear the Eva with complete peace of mind.
How do I care for it?
Remove it before showering, swimming or exercise, avoid contact with lotions and fragrance, and store it dry in its velvet box between wears. A soft, dry cloth restores the shine.
Does it arrive gift-ready?
Yes. Every order ships in a free luxury velvet gift box and is backed by our lifetime warranty — ready for a proposal or to give as a keepsake.
Can I see other ruby designs?
Of course. Explore the full ruby engagement rings collection and our matching ruby couples rings to find your perfect pairing.
