2.14 Ct. Ruby from Mozambique

This transparent 2.14 carat pear shape red ruby presents a combination of attributes that are uncommon in the market. Measuring 9.21 x 6.25 x 5.29 mm, the stone displays a mixed brilliant cut that balances scintillation with broad color face up. The ruby is eye clean when evaluated at eye level, a clarity characteristic that becomes increasingly rare as size increases. Its color registers as vivid in intensity, a hue that is both saturated and evenly distributed across the stone, producing a strong red presence without appearing dark or brownish. The polish is excellent, ensuring clean facet junctions and optimal light return. Origin is Mozambique, and the stone has been heat treated, a widely accepted and stable enhancement that improves color and clarity while being fully disclosed.

Compared with many rubies available in similar weight ranges, this specimen stands out for the concurrence of size, transparency, and vivid color. Many commercial rubies of comparable carat weight tend to show heavier inclusions, lower saturation, or less uniform color distribution, making truly transparent and vividly colored examples uncommon. The mixed brilliant cut in a pear outline further increases rarity, since large, well faceted pear shaped rubies with eye clean clarity and vivid red tones are less frequently encountered than round or cushion shapes. For practical considerations, a protective setting that shields the pointed tip is recommended to preserve the stone integrity during wear. The mixed brilliant faceting will produce strong brilliance under varied lighting, while the excellent polish maximizes surface luster. The Natural Ruby Company provides full disclosure of origin and enhancement status, and documentation of the stone specifications can be supplied upon request. This ruby is suited to fine jewelry applications where both visual presence and gemological quality are priorities, and it represents an uncommon combination of scale and color intensity relative to typical market examples.
