2.03 Ct. Ruby from Mozambique

This Bellerophon certified Red 2.03 carat cushion shape ruby presents a rare combination of natural purity and classic cutting precision, making it an outstanding choice for the educated buyer. The stone measures 8.10 x 6.87 x 3.62 mm, is faceted with a mixed brilliant cut, and displays intense color intensity with an excellent polish that maximizes light return and brilliance. Clarity is graded slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which means the ruby retains strong visual appeal and character without significant impact to its face up beauty. Importantly this ruby is unenhanced, no enhancement, confirming that its vivid red hue and internal structure are entirely natural. Origin is Mozambique, a source noted for producing vigorous, saturated rubies that rival historical deposits in both beauty and rarity. The combination of a substantial 2.03 carat weight, cushion shape proportions, high polish, and mixed brilliant faceting gives this gemstone significant presence in a finished piece, whether set for daily wear or preserved as a collectible investment.
