2.62 Ct. Ruby from Mozambique

As a specialist with The Natural Ruby Company, I understand the search for a gemstone that balances presence, wearability, and timeless beauty, and this 2.62 carat pinkish red ruby answers that search with confidence. Measured at 10.25 x 7.16 x 3.81 mm, the oval outline offers a classic yet modern silhouette that sits beautifully as a center stone in engagement rings, pendants, and bespoke cocktail rings. The mixed brilliant cut brings a lively sparkle from the crown facets while preserving depth and saturation, and the vivid color intensity ensures a bold visual impact in both daylight and evening light. For clients seeking a stone that photographs well and performs under daily wear, the excellent polish enhances brilliance and makes this ruby an excellent centerpiece for custom creations.

Practicality and design flexibility are key, and the dimensions and profile of this ruby make it exceptionally versatile for custom jewelry. The 10.25 by 7.16 mm footprint is ideal for solitaire settings that show off the oval form, for halo designs that magnify presence without overwhelming the finger, and for three stone settings that balance symmetry with sparkle. The 3.81 mm depth provides enough pavilion to secure the gem in prong settings while also allowing bezel and low profile settings for active lifestyles, giving designers and clients freedom to prioritize comfort or drama. Clarity graded included at eye level means natural inclusions are present, adding character without detracting from the gem being transparent and lively. Heat treated enhancement is stable and common for rubies, improving clarity and color while preserving the natural origin and integrity of the gem.

This ruby comes from Mozambique, a source known for producing richly colored material, and it is offered with the care and service you expect from The Natural Ruby Company. For couples seeking a distinctive engagement center, designers crafting a signature commission, or collectors who appreciate a well cut, vividly colored specimen, this oval ruby meets those needs with practical dimensions, strong visual appeal, and excellent polish. If you would like design suggestions, metal pairings, or setting options to enhance the pinkish red tones, I can provide tailored recommendations to ensure the finished piece reflects your vision and wears beautifully for years to come.
