This 3.78 carat oval pinkish red ruby, measuring 12.03 x 8.86 x 3.77 mm, answers that search with confidence. Cut with a mixed brilliant style and finished to an excellent polish, this Mozambique ruby displays intense color intensity that captures the eye, while its clarity grade of included, evaluated at eye level, affirms the gem is naturally characterful and honest. Heat treated to stabilize and enhance the hue, and sourced from Mozambique, this ruby brings both provenance and beauty. At The Natural Ruby Company we understand that buyers want a stone that will behave elegantly on the hand and in the light, and this ruby was selected precisely for that purpose.

The mixed brilliant cut is central to how this ruby performs, it marries a faceting scheme that balances broad light return with lively scintillation, the shallow crown facets and well proportioned pavilion facets work together to funnel light back through the table so the intense pinkish red saturates the face up view, the oval outline further concentrates color along the length for a visually larger appearance at 3.78 carats, and the facet junctions created by the excellent polish produce crisp flashes that animate the stone as it moves. In practice the mixed brilliant design reduces the risk of windowing by ensuring light is refracted internally rather than escaping through the sides, this means richer perceived color in both daylight and artificial lighting, and the interplay of brilliance and fire gives a pleasing mix of white sparkle and warm red flashes. For a customer seeking an engagement gem that reads as luxurious and alive, or for a collector who values a Mozambique origin and full disclosure on treatment and clarity, this ruby represents a perfect solution, and The Natural Ruby Company stands behind its selection with detailed information and a commitment to helping you set the stone in a mounting that maximizes its light performance and emotional impact.
