2.67 Ct. Ruby from Mozambique

From the red earth of Mozambique to the quiet hands of our master cutters, this ruby carries a story older than any setting it may adorn. Born in alluvial sands where rivers once whispered through hidden deposits, this gem was collected, cleaned, and gently heated to awaken the depth of its hue. The journey left traces of time within it, natural inclusions visible at eye level that we celebrate as the stone's fingerprints. At 2.67 carat, and measuring 10.93 by 7.47 by 3.23 millimeters, the oval purplish red gem shows a transparent body and a dark color intensity that reads like twilight and embers in a single glance. Cut to a mixed brilliant style and finished with an excellent polish, every facet was shaped to catch light and memory alike, transforming a raw promise into a gem that shines with character.

There is a romance to this ruby that lives in its color and clarity, a romance we at The Natural Ruby Company love to tell. Imagine a sunset in Mozambique, the sky shifting from violet to deep red, and within that palette this stone holds its own private sunset. The included clarity does not dim its beauty, rather it gives the gem a human story, tiny internal landscapes that speak of endurance and authenticity. Heat enhancement was applied with care, a traditional and respectful touch to deepen the purplish red and reveal the stone's inner fire. Polished to an excellent finish and balanced in an elegant oval, this ruby invites a setting that honors both its origin and its soul. For someone seeking a gem with provenance, personality, and timeless appeal, this piece offers both a geological journey and a promise of affection, ready to be set by a jeweler, or treasured as a singular collector gem, with the assurance and passion of The Natural Ruby Company.
