Product description

There are few gems that carry the quiet weight of history in quite the same way as a ruby, and this pear shaped specimen channels that legacy with a modern clarity. For millennia rubies have been entrusted to crowns, talismans, and jewelry intended to mark the most consequential moments of a life, and the deep association between red stone and regal presence has been preserved in every age. The Natural Ruby Company has long drawn on that continuum, sourcing stones that speak to both the storied past of gemstone lore and the refined sensibility of contemporary collectors. This particular ruby, from the prolific mines of Mozambique, sits comfortably within that tradition, offering an immediate, timeless appeal that suits classic ring settings, heirloom pendants, and private collections that cherish continuity. Its form is familiar enough to be readable at a glance, yet rare enough to be chosen by those who understand that true elegance is often the result of discerning rarity rather than mere abundance.

This ruby is a transparent, 2.70 carat pear shape ruby, with exact dimensions of 13.33 by 7.89 by 3.08 millimeters, and it is presented in a mixed brilliant cut that maximizes internal fire while preserving strong color saturation. The color reads as a pinkish red, and its vivid intensity places it among the more desirable examples of its hue, particularly at this weight. Clarity is graded as slightly included when evaluated at eye level, which means the stone remains visually clean and luminous to normal viewing, while displaying the kind of natural inclusions that confirm its identity and natural origin. The surface shows an excellent polish, reflecting light evenly across its facets, and the stone has undergone standard heat treatment, a stable and widely accepted enhancement that improves tone and transparency without compromising structural integrity. Mozambique has emerged in recent decades as a source of fine rubies, but rubies that combine a transparent nature, vivid pinkish red color, and a size of 2.70 carats are comparatively uncommon, making this piece stand out among similarly described stones in both availability and desirability.

What makes this ruby especially compelling is the way its dimensions and cut collaborate to produce a presence that reads larger than its carat weight might suggest. The elongated pear outline, at 13.33 millimeters long and 7.89 millimeters at the widest point, translates easily into jewel designs that emphasize classical balance and symmetry, while the mixed brilliant facet arrangement delivers a bright, scintillating surface that plays against the stone's rich color. In the trade, rubies of this hue and translucency are often sought after for solitaire rings that emulate historic signet and cocktail pieces, for pendant drops that echo antique lockets, and for bespoke designs that aim to pass from one generation to the next. Compared with more common red or pigeon blood tones, the pinkish red variant captured in this gem is striking because it offers a romantic warmth without tipping into brown or overly dark tones, and at 2.70 carats it occupies a threshold where rarity in size becomes noticeable to informed buyers. Slight inclusions are part of the stone's character, and they usually sit invisibly beneath a well designed setting, adding a fingerprint of natural formation that separates this genuine ruby from any synthetic counterpart.

Choosing this ruby through The Natural Ruby Company means investing in an object that is as much an emblem of continuity as it is a jewel, and we stand ready to assist with everything from bespoke mounting to recommendations for long term care. A classic prong setting in platinum or warm 18 carat gold will emphasize the pear outline and allow light to enter freely, while a bezel or halo design can offer a more protective, period appropriate aesthetic. Because the stone is heat treated, normal precautions for jewelry care are advised, including avoiding sudden extreme temperatures and professional cleaning when necessary, and our team can provide guidance for conservation so the gem retains its polish and color through daily wear. For collectors who value provenance, we can supply detailed measurements, additional images, and condition notes, and we welcome requests for independent assessment if that is required for insurance or resale purposes. This ruby, with its vivid pinkish red presence and thoughtful proportions, is an invitation to secure a piece of mineral history that will carry forward, a living link between past tradition and future memory, and a rare opportunity to own a stone that truly embodies the quiet, enduring power of a classic ruby.
