Product description

This parcel from The Natural Ruby Company is presented as a single, transparent red ruby weighing 2.01 carats, cut in a classic cushion shape and precisely measured at 8.09 by 6.14 by 3.97 millimeters. The gem carries a mixed brilliant cut that balances faceting for internal brilliance with a pavilion design that enhances depth of color, and it is finished to an excellent polish which lends crisp facet junctions and a clean table view. Clarity has been evaluated at eye level and graded as very slightly included, a condition that preserves the gem s visual purity while reflecting the natural formation of corundum. Color is described as vivid, and under typical lighting the stone displays the rich, saturated red tones associated with high quality rubies. There has been no enhancement applied, the stone is natural and untreated, and the origin is Mozambique, a source known in the contemporary gem market for producing strong color and high quality material.

From a gemological perspective this ruby exhibits characteristics consistent with corundum, including notable hardness that rates at nine on the Mohs scale, a feature that supports day to day wearability in most fine jewelry applications. The mixed brilliant cut amplifies light return and scintillation while maintaining weight retention for a cutter who seeks to balance carat yield with optical performance. The clarity grade very slightly included indicates inclusions that are minor and typically not distracting to the naked eye, yet they serve as natural fingerprints that distinguish this stone from synthetics and treated material. The vivid color intensity is particularly significant, as hue and saturation are primary determinants of value in rubies, and this example demonstrates a deep red that remains lively under different illumination conditions. The excellent polish complements the cut, producing a smooth finish that promotes clean light passage and sharp facet outlines.

The heritage of rubies is long and multifaceted, and this stone enters that tradition through its material authenticity and provenance. Throughout history, rubies have been associated with royalty and power, used as signet stones, set into coronation regalia, and exchanged as diplomatic gifts, and they have held symbolic significance in cultures from South Asia to East Africa. In many societies rubies were worn as protective amulets and talismans, believed to bring courage and vitality to the bearer, and they were incorporated into ceremonial objects and heirloom pieces that passed through generations. Mozambican rubies have more recently become prominent in the global trade, supplementing and in some cases resembling the qualities once sought in classic sources, and this stone represents a modern continuation of a long lineage of prized corundum gems. When considered within that historical context, the untreated condition and vivid coloration of this ruby align with the attributes traditionally prized by collectors and connoisseurs.

For practical use and setting, the cushion profile and mixed brilliant faceting of this 2.01 carat ruby make it well suited to a variety of fine jewelry designs, including solitaire rings, bezel set pendants, and classic three stone compositions, and the dimensions provide a substantial presence while remaining comfortable for daily wear. Because the stone is natural and has received no enhancement, it is appropriate for collectors and for bespoke commissions where untreated material is preferred, and The Natural Ruby Company can provide documentation and provenance information to accompany the gem. Care for corundum is straightforward, and routine cleaning with mild detergent and a soft brush is recommended, avoiding harsh chemicals and extreme thermal shock. The combination of vivid color, excellent polish, and natural origin positions this ruby as a durable and historically resonant choice for fine jewelry, offering the wearer a direct connection to the long established traditions that have elevated ruby to its place among the most valued colored gemstones.
