2.32 Ct. Ruby from Mozambique

This transparent pear shape ruby weighs 2.32 carat, and its weight alone positions it within the premium range for colored gemstones offering both presence and versatility in fine jewelry. The gem measures 10.31 by 7.24 by 3.82 mm, proportions that balance a strong face up surface area with a well controlled pavilion depth, yielding solid light return and a confident table that emphasizes the stone color. The cutter has executed a mixed brilliant cut, combining a brilliant style crown with modified pavilion faceting to optimize scintillation and color saturation, and the overall symmetry and excellent polish contribute to crisp facet junctions and lively reflections. Color is described as pinkish red with intense saturation, a hue profile that reads strongly in daylight and in warm incandescent light, and the piece displays uniform color distribution across the table and crown. Origin is Mozambique, a source known for rubies with saturated, vivid tones, and the stone has been heat treated, a stable enhancement commonly applied to improve clarity and color while preserving natural zoning and character. Clarity is graded included, evaluated at eye level, and the internal features are typical of natural ruby, providing internal texture that interacts with light to produce depth rather than detracting from brilliance.

From a technical and commercial standpoint this 2.32 carat pear ruby represents a premium offering from The Natural Ruby Company, combining substantial carat weight with desirable cutting proportions and intense color intensity. The mixed brilliant faceting and excellent polish allow the gem to exhibit both lively scintillation and a rich face up color, qualities sought after for solitaires, drop pendants, and bespoke ring designs where weight and color are primary determinants of value. The heat treatment is disclosed and stable, and the included clarity grade confirms the stone is natural and untreated by filling processes, attributes important to connoisseurs and trade buyers alike. For setting considerations the balanced length to width ratio lends itself to tapered prong or three stone mounts that preserve the pear silhouette while maximizing visible color, and the stone’s depth supports secure bezel settings in high end commissions. The Natural Ruby Company stands behind its selection criteria and recommends laboratory verification for buyers seeking documentation, and our selection emphasizes gems that pair technical excellence in cutting and polish with the premium visual impact afforded by a 2.32 carat weight.
