0.45 Ct. Ruby from Vietnam

This exquisite transparent ruby, weighing 0.45 carats, is a fine example of nature's artistry and human craftsmanship, making it an ideal choice for those seeking to create custom jewelry pieces that are both unique and exquisite. Crafted in a pear shape, which is renowned for its ability to maximize the brilliance and fire of a gemstone, this ruby measures 6.19 x 4.09 x 2.43 mm. The pear shape is particularly popular in bespoke jewelry because it combines the traditional elegance of round shapes with the more modern lines of cuts like the marquise, creating a tear-drop silhouette that looks stunning in jewelry settings such as pendants and earrings. The mixed brilliant cut further enhances the ruby's natural sparkle, allowing it to interact brilliantly with light and ensuring that it catches the eye from every angle.

One of the factors that make this ruby highly valuable is its clarity grade. With a very slightly included clarity, evaluated at eye level, this ruby provides a clean and unobstructed view through the stone, something that is highly sought after by jewelry enthusiasts and designers alike. The slight inclusions, which are barely noticeable to the naked eye, can actually testify to the gem's authenticity while still preserving the ruby's radiant appearance. Unlike sapphires that often face extensive treatments to enhance their clarity, what is remarkable about this ruby is its natural purity. Each glance reveals its intrinsic beauty, contributing to a sense of wonder and admiration typically reserved for the world’s finest gemstones.

Equally important is the ruby's color, an attribute that plays a crucial role in its desirability and market value. This ruby's vivid color intensity is a defining characteristic that sets it apart from others. It boasts a rich and deep red hue, reminiscent of the strikingly vibrant rubies historically adored in royal jewelry collections. Such intense coloring does not just evoke visual splendor; it also suggests a level of rarity as only a fraction of rubies possess such vibrant coloration. This intensity is sure to appeal to collectors and connoisseurs who appreciate the subtle, emotional interplay between light and color. Not to mention, the excellent polish of the stone amplifies its vivacity, ensuring that its surface interacts seamlessly with light to produce a harmonious shine that enhances any jewelry design.

Sourced from Vietnam, this ruby offers a traceable lineage that adds an extra layer of prestige and authenticity to your custom-crafted jewelry piece. Vietnam has become increasingly noted for producing high-quality gemstones, particularly red rubies that compare favorably to the celebrated Burmese rubies. Its origin story adds allure and distinction, reminding us of the exotic journeys these gems endure from their geological formations to becoming cherished components in a jewelry piece. The Natural Ruby Company takes pride in offering gems that reflect a commitment to quality and ethical sourcing, inviting you to partake in a legacy of sophistication and trustworthiness. For anyone captivated by the art of custom jewelry, this ruby from Vietnam serves as a testament to the beauty and heritage associated with fine gemstones, providing both visual splendor and an esteemed presence.
