Solitaire Ruby Ring 1.05 Ct., 18K Yellow Gold

This elegant solitaire ring from The Natural Ruby Company centers a transparent, GRS certified purplish red ruby of 1.05 carat, cut into a refined oval measuring 6.90 by 5.29 by 3.42 millimeters with a mixed brilliant cut. The stone displays vivid color saturation and excellent polish, and is graded very slightly included at eye level, a level of clarity that allows the deep, lively tone of a Burmese ruby to shine without obstruction. Crucially, this ruby is unenhanced and of Burma origin, an uncommon and highly prized combination among natural rubies, and the 14K yellow gold mount provides a warm, classic frame that highlights the gem without overpowering it. The proportions and polish of the mixed brilliant facets are chosen to maximize return of light, while the precise prong setting secures the stone and presents it in an elevated gallery that gives the gem presence and visibility from every angle.

When compared to the finishing and design language of established luxury houses, this ring’s craftsmanship holds its own. The clean lines and hand-calibrated symmetry recall the restraint of classic solitaires from brands like Cartier and Tiffany, while the tight, evenly formed prongs and mirror-polished band reflect the meticulous finishing one expects from top ateliers. Unlike many mass-produced pieces that prioritize branding over gemstone integrity, our approach at The Natural Ruby Company emphasizes the gem first, matching the stone to a setting that complements its optical properties. The result is a piece that rivals high-end couture in execution, but distinguishes itself through genuineness of material, the rarity of an unenhanced Burmese origin, and the focused attention on facet alignment and polish that brings out the ruby’s full depth and fire.

Beyond aesthetics, the value proposition is clear. Clients seeking a ring with the look and finish of a luxury maison will find superior honesty in provenance and treatment here, with a GRS report that documents natural origin and lack of enhancement, and with direct sourcing that reduces the markup associated with large brand names. For those who care about both enduring style and true gemstone quality, this ring delivers a rare, unenhanced Burmese ruby set with precision and care, offering lasting beauty and confident provenance.
