1.98 Ct. Ruby from Mozambique

Introducing a true marvel of nature from The Natural Ruby Company. We present to you an exquisite transparent 1.98 carat oval-shaped pinkish red ruby, a gemstone that promises not only to capture the eye with its vibrant allure but also to enchant the discerning customer with its captivating story and unparalleled beauty. Measuring precisely 7.77 x 6.72 x 4.45 mm, this magnificent ruby is ethically sourced from the acclaimed gem-rich lands of Mozambique, a region known for producing some of the world's most sought-after rubies. Our commitment to quality ensures that each gemstone is carefully scrutinized and transformed into a piece of art; this ruby is no exception. Its mixed brilliant cut is designed to amplify the inherent splendor of the stone, skillfully enhancing its natural properties of light reflection.

When discussing gemstones, particularly rubies, one cannot overlook the significant impact that a stone's cut has on its optical performance. The mixed brilliant cut featured in this pinkish red ruby is a testament to superior craftsmanship. This type of cut skilfully incorporates facets of various sizes and angles, optimizing the light return through the gem. The longer oval shape allows light to enter the stone and travel across its longest axis, maximally exploiting the stone's dimensional length. This cleverly designed cut ensures that each facet acts like a mirror, bouncing light internally and infusing the ruby with unparalleled brilliance and a vivid play of light. Even though there is inclusion present when evaluated at eye level, the impact on the overall allure is minimized by the brilliance of enhanced light reflection brought out by the cut. This combination of the mixed brilliant cut and the polish—a hallmark of precision finishing—ensures the ruby exhibits maximum luster.

Moreover, the intense color intensity of this Mozambique ruby, further enhanced by a light heat treatment, is a characteristic that truly sets it apart. The heat treatment is applied to naturally enhance the transparency and color, optimizing its vivid pinkish red hue without undermining its authenticity. This process is recognized and accepted in the gemstone market to bring forth a gem's full potential while preserving its original charm. The intensity of this ruby's color is profoundly bold and captivating, which is highly prized among educated and informed buyers who understand the correlation between color saturation and value in gemstones. A ruby's allure lies significantly in its color; hence a deeply saturated hue greatly increases its desirability and showcases a rich spectrum that ranges from soft pink undertones to a robust red, dancing harmoniously as light encapsulates the stone's entirety.
