1.11 Ct. Ruby from Mozambique

Presented by The Natural Ruby Company, this extraordinary Mozambique ruby is an invitation into a world of rare, unaltered beauty. This single transparent, GRS certified red ruby weighs 1.11 carats, and is fashioned in a classic oval form with precise dimensions of 7.02 by 5.71 by 3.11 millimeters, a size that balances presence with refined elegance. Its provenance from Mozambique places it among the most sought after sources for fine rubies, and the GRS certification confirms the authenticity and natural origin that discerning collectors require. Owning this gem confers entry into a select group of patrons who insist on natural, untreated stones, and who appreciate the quiet luxury of pieces that are both rare and resolutely authentic. The measured carat weight, the harmonious proportions, and the provenance together create a sense of exclusivity that few other gemstones can match, and this stone has been curated with that sense of bespoke rarity in mind.

Visually this ruby commands attention with a vivid color intensity that reads as pure, saturated red across the table and through the pavilion, an evocative hue that glows from within. The stone features a mixed brilliant cut that has been executed to maximize scintillation and depth, allowing pinpoint flashes and broad flashes to dance across its surface as it moves. Clarity is evaluated as eye clean at eye level, a standard that means the stone will present to the naked eye with pristine clarity, free from distracting inclusions that interrupt the flow of color. The polish is excellent, and each facet edge has been finished to a mirror gloss that enhances both sparkle and the richness of tone. Critically for connoisseurs, this ruby has undergone no enhancement, a quality that elevates its rarity and the integrity of its market value, ensuring that what you see is the stone in its natural, original state.

Beyond its visual splendour, this Mozambique ruby is remarkably suited to daily wear, a practical elegance that sets it apart as a living piece of jewellery rather than a museum object. Rubies belong to the corundum family, and on the Mohs hardness scale they rate a 9, second only to diamond in resistance to scratching. That high hardness, combined with the inherent toughness of well formed corundum crystals, makes this gem extremely resilient under normal daily conditions. The mixed brilliant cut and excellent polish also contribute to durability, as precise faceting reduces stress concentrations and provides uniform planes that stand up to the rigours of everyday life. With a secure, professional setting, this 1.11 carat oval will withstand the small knocks and contacts of daily routine, retaining its lustre and form for years. While no gem is indestructible, this natural ruby provides peace of mind and confidence for those who wish to wear their most cherished jewels at all times, whether as a ring that meets the day to day, or as a pendant that sits close to the heart.

To own this gem is to claim a piece of exclusivity that The Natural Ruby Company presents only rarely, and we offer bespoke setting options to honor the stone with the architecture it deserves. For clients wishing to design a one off engagement ring, an heirloom pendant, or a private commission, this ruby arrives as a foundational element around which a personalised design can be crafted, ensuring that the finished jewel is unique to you. The GRS certificate accompanies the stone, documenting its natural origin, its measurements, and the fact that it has no treatments, a reassurance that amplifies both sentimental and financial value. For collectors and fine jewellery patrons who seek the rare, the untouched, and the beautifully made, this Mozambique ruby answers both aesthetic aspiration and practical needs.
