This ring centers on a transparent 5.61 carat oval pinkish red ruby, measuring 11.95 x 9.83 x 5.61 mm, cut in a mixed brilliant style to maximize scintillation and face up color, clarity graded as included, evaluated at eye level, with intense color saturation and an excellent polish, heat treatment has been applied, origin Mozambique. For an educated buyer the combination of weight, transparency, and strong saturation is significant, five carats plus in a single ruby of Mozambique origin is rare and desirable, the mixed brilliant cut balances depth and table size to allow both flash and rich body color, polish at an excellent level ensures light returns cleanly from the facets. Included clarity at eye level means internal characteristics are present and visible to a trained eye in certain lighting, this is typical for natural rubies of substantial size, and the disclosed heat treatment is a standard enhancement used to stabilize and intensify color, a transparent, well cut ruby from Mozambique with these proportions represents both aesthetic impact and investment grade appeal, The Natural Ruby Company ensures full disclosure of treatments and sourcing so you may evaluate this gem with confidence.

The surrounding white round natural diamonds total approximately one point two zero carats for the primary side stones, clarity grades Very Slightly Included, VS1 and VS2, color grade E, together with additional accent diamonds of approximately zero point zero nine carats and zero point two four carats, clarity VS, color grade F to G, these quality diamonds provide brilliant contrast and a clean, near colorless backdrop that enhances the ruby hue without competing with it. The mounting uses both 18K yellow gold and 18K white gold, the yellow gold prongs accentuate the warm pinkish red of the ruby, while the white gold shoulders and engraved band allow the diamonds to display crisp white light. This design reads beautifully as a single statement ring, standing alone as an elegant solitaire with substantial presence, and it also pairs exceptionally well with additional bands, thin white gold or yellow gold stacking rings will layer without obscuring the ruby profile, the low to moderate gallery and secure prong setting make it suitable for stacking, and the dual tone metalwork offers versatile styling options.
