2.67 Ct. Ruby from Mozambique

From the red earth of Mozambique to the quiet light of the jeweler's bench, this ruby carries a tale of nature and careful human hands, a story that begins in one of the worlds most vibrant gem producing regions and ends as a symbol of lasting commitment. Mined from Mozambique, this transparent GIA certified red ruby weighs 2.67 carats, and measures 8.34 x 6.60 x 5.17 mm, cushion shape, mixed brilliant cut, with intense color intensity and an excellent polish. Its clarity is described as very slightly included evaluated at eye level, and it has been heat treated to bring out its vivid pinkish red hue. The GIA report is a promise of authenticity and quality, a document that traces the stone from its origin through the careful cutting and polishing that reveal its inner fire. Each facet was planned to balance brilliance and color, and the mixed brilliant cut transforms the stone into a compact sun of pink and red flashes, a living gem that still bears the memory of its origins in quiet alluvial pockets and modern mines alike.

For an engagement ring, this ruby is an invitation to choose meaning and character over the ordinary, a center stone that will age beautifully while retaining daily wearability thanks to ruby being corundum, one of the hardest gemstones with a Mohs hardness of 9, second only to diamond. The cushion shape sits gracefully on the finger, the 2.67 carat weight offering presence without overwhelming, and the dimensions make it ideal for classic solitaire settings as well as halo or vintage inspired designs. At The Natural Ruby Company we present this stone as a heart first choice, perfect for someone who values provenance, color, and endurance. The intense pinkish red tone suggests romance and modern elegance, the excellent polish ensures lively sparkle, and the GIA certification and transparent clarity invite confidence. Choose this ruby as the center of an engagement ring and you choose a jewel with a story, a jewel that began in Mozambiques soils and has been shaped into something that will witness a lifetime of moments, a gem that is both a promise and a keepsake.
