Use cases and real-world appeal
Imagine the Vintage Ruby Empress Ring accenting a special dinner, marking a milestone anniversary, or serving as your everyday luxury that elevates casual outfits with a splash of bold color. Its ruby centerpiece is an instant conversation starter, while the vintage-inspired setting lends an air of refined artistry that distinguishes it from more contemporary designs.
Care, longevity, and keeping it brilliant
To preserve the ruby’s brilliance, wipe the ring with a soft, lint-free cloth after wear and store it in a fabric-lined jewelry box or pouch when not in use. Avoid harsh chemicals, and remove the ring during activities that could snag or strike the gemstone. For deeper cleaning, consult a professional jeweler who can inspect the setting and ensure the ruby remains secure over time.
Size, fit, and practical notes
Designed to fit true-to-size for most wearers, the Vintage Ruby Empress Ring pairs a comfortable interior with a striking external presence. If you’re between sizes, consider choosing the next half or full size up to maintain a comfortable, secure fit. For the best long-term wear, have your size confirmed by a jeweler before selecting the final piece.
Elevate your jewelry wardrobe with a ring that blends dramatic color with a regal, vintage silhouette. The Vintage Ruby Empress Ring is more than a gemstone accessory—it’s a timeless expression of passion, craftsmanship, and confident style.

4 Reasons Women Have Worn Copper for 3,000 Years
Featured collection
About Della's Copper
Every piece starts with the same intention: to be worn by someone who wants to carry something real.
Copper has been pressed against human skin for thousands of years, by Egyptian queens, by Roman soldiers, by every generation of women before us. Worn quietly, daily, against the skin, long before anyone called it a "wellness trend."
I've spent 40 years in my workshop in Bisbee, Arizona, shaping copper by hand, a handful of pieces a day, never rushed, never mass-produced. More than 23,000 women wear what I've made, and I still test every piece the same way I did the first year I started.
I built this collection on that same stubborn idea: pure copper, made the way it deserves to be made. Nothing plated. Nothing coated. Nothing rushed.
There are only so many I can make. Once they're gone, they're gone.
Della
My Mother Wore Copper Every Single Day
Never took it off. Not in the shower. Not when she slept. Not even at her own wedding.
We called it superstition. She called it tradition.
She grew up wearing copper every day, the same way her mother did, and her mother before her.
"You stop wearing copper and you start wondering why everything feels harder."
I dismissed it for years. Until I started really looking at her, and realized she'd lived differently than every woman I knew. A small thing she put on every morning that tied her to her mother, her grandmother, and every woman who came before. Three thousand years old. No pills. No schedule. Nothing to remember.
Her copper band is on my wrist now.
Too late to tell her she was right. But not too late for you.
