Offered by The Natural Ruby Company, this specimen is a transparent 1.54 carat pear shape ruby with a pinkish red hue, presented in a faceted style with a mixed brilliant cut. The gem measures 7.89 by 5.55 by 4.61 mm, dimensions that yield a balanced face up presence while maintaining comfortable depth for secure mounting. Color intensity is vivid, producing an immediate visual impact even in modest lighting, and the stone exhibits excellent polish across its crown and pavilion facets. The clarity is graded slightly included when evaluated at eye level. These inclusions are minimal in effect and do not significantly interrupt light transmission or the overall vivacity of the color. The ruby is natural with no enhancement, originating from Mozambique, a source known for producing rubies with appealing color saturation and good crystallographic quality.
The mixed brilliant cut applied to this pear shape strategically combines generous pavilion facets with a brilliant style crown, producing a pleasing interplay between light return and color concentration. The cut proportion, reflected in the 4.61 mm depth, supports a lively scintillation while preserving the gem s face up color, a particularly important attribute for pinkish red rubies where even color distribution enhances perceived value. Excellent polish ensures crisp facet junctions and clean reflections, aiding stone setting by reducing glare related polishing irregularities. Slight inclusions noted at eye level serve as internal character markers rather than detractors, and they are positioned and sized so as to be compatible with a range of setting types, including bezel and prong systems, without compromising structural integrity or overall appearance.
The pear silhouette and the listed dimensions make this ruby especially suitable for custom jewelry work where versatility of form is a priority. At 7.89 by 5.55 mm this gem provides an elegant elongated outline that complements solitaire rings, drop pendants, and tailored three stone designs, while its 1.54 carat weight provides sufficient substance for a confident center stone without dominating a delicate mounting. For ring design the tapered point offers directional emphasis along the finger, and it adapts well to east west and traditional head orientations. For pendants the pear shape produces a classic teardrop profile that pairs well with halo settings or clean bezel mounts to protect the tip. The mixed brilliant cut and vivid color also make it an attractive choice for bespoke earrings where paired symmetry is desired, or for signature brooch elements where face up color and light return are both essential. As a natural, non enhanced ruby from Mozambique, this stone is well suited to clients and designers who prioritize origin transparency and minimal intervention, and The Natural Ruby Company can supply detailed imaging and measurement documentation to support custom work and secure setting decisions.
