0.85 Ct. Ruby from Burma (Myanmar)

From the rugged hills of Burma to the careful hands in our cutting studio, this 0.85 carat pear shaped ruby tells a story of earth and craft, of ancient geology meeting modern skill. Extracted from Burmese deposits known for producing intensely colored corundum, this gem was selected for its vivid red, then gently heat treated to reveal its truest tone and stability. Measuring 6.74 x 5.05 x 3.03 mm, shaped as a pear and fashioned with a mixed brilliant cut, it offers a beautiful balance between sparkle and depth, and an excellent polish that allows light to dance across the table and crown. At The Natural Ruby Company we honor both the natural origin and the human hands that refine these stones, and this ruby carries the lineage of Myanmar gemmaking in each facet.

This ruby is graded included at eye level, and its internal features are part of its fingerprint and personality, not flaws to hide. You will notice tiny crystalline pinpoints, delicate silk like rutile veins, and soft feathered veils that trace the stone like an internal landscape, each inclusion unique to this crystal and a reliable marker of natural origin. These inclusions scatter light in intimate ways, creating subtle flashes and depth that make the color appear more alive, and they offer gemologists and collectors clues about the stone s journey through earth and time. Rather than diminishing the gem, these characteristics authenticate it, telling a private history that has been preserved inside the corundum, and making the ruby unmistakably individual.

When set, the mixed brilliant cut maximizes the vivid color while maintaining lively scintillation, and the excellent polish gives every surface a refined finish that complements fine jewelry. Heat treatment has been applied with care to enhance color uniformly and to stabilize the stone for everyday wear, preserving both its natural inclusions and its radiant hue. This ruby is ready to become the heart of a ring or pendant, a piece that carries the warmth of Burma and the integrity of responsible selection, presented by The Natural Ruby Company as a gem to be cherished, passed on, and enjoyed for generations.
