2.40 Ct. Ruby from Mozambique

This exquisite, transparent 2.40 carat oval ruby measures 9.42 x 6.24 x 4.23 mm, and its mixed brilliant cut transforms every facet into a canvas of fire and depth, clarity evaluated as slightly included at eye level, vivid color intensity, and an excellent polish. Hailing from Mozambique, this gem displays a saturated, living red that leans toward a pure, sanguine heart tone with warm undertones that glow from within, a luminosity that rival stones from historic mines aspire to capture. Compared to the legendary pigeon blood rubies of Myanmar, which often present a deeper, bluish red, this Mozambique specimen offers a slightly warmer, more vibrant red that breathes with natural vitality. Against Sri Lankan rubies, known for their delicate, pinkish Ceylon hues, this stone is unquestionably bolder, offering presence and command rather than whispering subtlety. When set beside Thai rubies, which can carry brownish or muted tones from heavy iron content, this Mozambique ruby stands apart with a cleaner, more luminous tone, while Madagascar rubies, often variable in saturation, rarely match the evenly distributed vivacity of this gem. The modest, well distributed inclusions are an honest signature of natural formation and provenance, and the professionally applied heat enhancement enhances color and clarity without diminishing the stone s innate character.

Presented by The Natural Ruby Company, this ruby is not merely a jewel, it is an emblem of refined achievement and discreet power, a piece that speaks to connoisseurs who know that true luxury is rooted in authenticity and provenance. Imagine this oval set in a minimalist platinum ring where light will dance across its mixed brilliant facets, or cradled within a classic pendant that allows its vivid tone to become the focal point against the skin, casting warmth and authority. For the collector, its Mozambique origin and superb polish make it a desirable addition, while for the wearer its vivid presence elevates every occasion. Heat treatment is an accepted and transparent enhancement that optimizes the gem s natural beauty, and here it has been applied with precision to reveal the ruby s fullest expression. The Natural Ruby Company invites discerning patrons to experience this rare 2.40 carat treasure, a ruby that declares taste without ostentation, and rewards ownership with a lifetime of admiration.
