Look closer and you will find the intimate details that make this ruby uncommon, dimensions of 8.08 by 6.69 by 3.35 mm that give it a harmonious balance between size and wearability. The clarity grade is very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, an honest and natural character that speaks of earthly origin rather than laboratory perfection. These very slight inclusions do not diminish the gem, they instead add a fingerprint of authenticity, a tiny whispered story of formation under heat and pressure.

From Mozambique, the origin of this ruby brings with it a lineage of volcanic earth and tropical light, a provenance that collectors and romantics alike will recognize as desirable. The excellent polish ensures that light moves across the surface with silk like grace, while the mixed brilliant cut allows internal reflections to dance with the external shimmer, creating an effect that feels alive and breathing.
