3.47 Ct. Ruby from Mozambique

This beautiful transparent GIA certified red ruby weighs 3.47 carats, and presents an elegant oval shape measuring 9.46 x 7.85 x 4.93 mm. The gem is cut to a mixed brilliant style, which balances larger facets on the pavilion with a brilliant crown to maximize both depth of color and scintillation. Color is graded vivid in intensity, yielding a saturated pure red face up that performs exceptionally well in jewelry. Clarity is evaluated as slightly included at eye level, indicating natural internal characteristics that are small and do not materially compromise the transparency or light performance of the stone. The excellent polish further enhances brilliance and facet delineation. Enhancement is disclosed as heat treatment, the industry standard treatment that stabilizes and intensifies color while being fully accepted by laboratories such as GIA, and the stone is accompanied by GIA documentation for confident purchase.

Origin matters to collectors and investors, and this ruby comes from Mozambique, a modern source renowned for producing richly saturated rubies since the early twenty first century. Mozambican deposits have yielded stones with attractive sizes and vivid color, and provenance from Mozambique often commands a premium relative to undetermined origins because it signals a geological source known for ruby material with robust color and commercial supply. For the educated buyer this combination of measurable attributes, GIA certification, and transparent treatment disclosure creates a strong value proposition, because you are acquiring a gem with documented quality, predictable light behavior, and a respected geographic origin. At The Natural Ruby Company we emphasize documentation and ethical sourcing, and we provide condition reports and images to support informed decisions. This ruby is an excellent option for a collector seeking a statement sized, eye clean appearing ruby with vivid color, and for a jeweler seeking a high quality centerpiece that will retain desirability due to its certified grade and Mozambique origin.
