Aamir Khan and Gauri Spratt accepted each other as husband and wife in an intimate ceremony attended by close friends and family on Sunday. During their first public appearance as husband and wife, Gauri caught everyone’s attention with her chunky wedding ring. While many initially assumed it was a diamond, the jeweller behind the design has now confirmed that the centre stone is a natural ruby.
What makes the ring even more special is the craftsmanship behind it. The custom-made piece took three months to source the perfect ruby and 256 hours of meticulous handcrafting by 131 pairs of skilled artisans. The gemstone is secured using a classic prong setting.
Gauri Spratt’s Wedding Ring
The ring features a distinctive design in which the ruby is elevated within a coronet-style gold gallery. Instead of sitting flush against the band, the setting rises in soft, crown-like peaks that elegantly cradle the gemstone.
At its centre is a cabochon-cut natural ruby, polished into a smooth dome rather than faceted. This cut enhances the stone’s rich oxblood-red hue, allowing it to glow with remarkable depth. The ruby is mounted in a scalloped gold setting that flows into crown-inspired points before joining a band finished with delicate milgrain detailing. Viewed from the side, the ring resembles a bold bombé signet, giving it a sculptural, eye-catching profile.
The ruby was sourced from Madagascar, with the jeweller, QWEEN, stating that fewer than 0.1 per cent of natural rubies meet this level of quality.
Not The First Bespoke Piece
This isn’t the first bespoke piece of jewellery Gauri has been seen wearing from the brand. Earlier, she was spotted wearing a rare aquamarine ring, which was gifted by Aamir Khan and privately commissioned through the brand.
That ring featured a Brazilian aquamarine in a vivid ocean-blue shade, set in gold and surrounded by 40 natural diamonds.
According to the jeweller, aquamarines of comparable size and clarity account for less than 0.3 per cent of stones found worldwide, making it another exceptionally rare creation.
