This is a GIA certified, transparent red ruby weighing 1.03 carats, shaped as an elegant pear, with precise dimensions of 7.24 by 6.24 by 2.85 mm. The mixed brilliant cut has been executed to balance scintillation and depth, and the polish is excellent, allowing light to move through the stone and return in a lively, saturated display. At The Natural Ruby Company we understand that customers want both beauty and assurance, and this ruby delivers both, with its vivid color intensity and a clarity grade described as very slightly included when viewed at eye level.

Beyond the technical specifics, the visual presence of this ruby is immediate and compelling. The vivid red is intense without appearing flat, showing depth and lively internal reflections as the stone is turned. The pear shape lends a timeless elegance that flatters many ring and pendant designs, while the mixed brilliant faceting adds a play of light that reads modern and luxurious at the same time. With excellent polish, the facets have crisp edges and smooth planes, which enhances the stone’s ability to flash color and brilliance. The balance between face up brightness and saturation is one of the reasons this gem stands out, and because it has been evaluated and certified by GIA, you have an independent verification of the ruby’s identity and key attributes.

What makes this ruby truly signature are the unique inclusions that give it personality, and that cannot be replicated by another stone. Inside this Mozambique origin ruby you will find a constellation of tiny, needle like inclusions and minute crystal pinpoints, arranged in a pattern that reads like a fingerprint. These internal characteristics catch and scatter light in subtle ways, producing localized flashes and depth that enrich the overall color, and they create a living texture that is visible under magnification. The inclusions are delicate and well balanced, which is why the clarity is graded as very slightly included at eye level, meaning the stone reads clean to unaided vision, while still retaining those internal markers that prove its natural origin and geological story. Collectors and connoisseurs often seek out these signature inclusion patterns, because they tell the tale of formation under immense pressure and heat, and because they make each ruby unmistakably unique.

We are transparent about enhancement, this ruby has been heat treated, which is a widely accepted and stable enhancement that improves color and clarity while preserving the natural crystal and its structural integrity. The origin of Mozambique is noted for producing richly colored rubies with vibrant saturation, and this gem exemplifies that regional character. From a design perspective it is an ideal choice for a center stone that needs presence without overpowering a delicate setting, and it will wear well for everyday use owing to ruby’s excellent hardness and toughness.
