The openwork flower is all airy loops of gold wire with tiny gold beads around the stone, so she feels light and playful on the chain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHer stone is a lab created ruby from the era when growing them was still new and marvelous science - a real ruby in chemistry, structure and hardness, just born in a flame instead of the ground. Scandinavian goldsmiths of the 1940s loved these stones for exactly this kind of vivid, saturated color that natural stones rarely reach. I have written a whole little piece about the fascinating history here: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.oldmineshop.com\/blogs\/journal\/lab-created-sapphires-in-antique-jewelry\"\u003eLab-Created Sapphires in Antique Jewelry\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShe is around 31 mm tall and weighs around 4.5 grams. She comes on her own, without a chain, so you can give her a home on the chain you already love.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExcellent condition with only minor signs of age. Please don't wait on this one - she is pure 1940s joy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oldmine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":60399644180814,"sku":null,"price":599.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1050\/3775\/8798\/files\/61ae8fe1ffd3873a52ec378c466e09e1.jpg?v=1786881982","url":"https:\/\/oldmineshop.com\/products\/cutest-retro-bow-pendant-w-cherry-lab-created-ruby-18k-gold-sweden-1940s","provider":"Oldmine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
