3.80 Ct. Cabochon Ruby from Mozambique

This exquisite translucent ruby from The Natural Ruby Company weighs 3.80 carat and is presented in an elegant oval shape with precise dimensions of 10.71 x 9.30 x 3.24 mm, making it a generous and comfortable size for any jewelry design. The stone shows a lovely pinkish red hue with medium intense color intensity that catches the light softly through its cabochon cut, creating a warm and glowing presence. Evaluated at eye level, the clarity is slightly included, adding character and confirming the natural origin, and the piece has an excellent polish that enhances its surface luster and smooth dome.

This ruby has been heat treated, a widely accepted enhancement that improves color and transparency while remaining stable for everyday wear when set and cared for properly. Originated in Mozambique, this gem brings the rich reputation of that source, known for producing vivid and attractive rubies. The cabochon form is particularly suited to styles that celebrate color and tactile beauty, such as bezel set rings, pendant stones, or classic brooches, and the rounded surface makes it comfortable for wearable pieces and resistant to catching. Its medium intensity color and translucency allow it to pair well with warm metals, including yellow gold and rose gold, while a white gold or platinum surround can highlight the pinkish red tone for a more contemporary look.

At The Natural Ruby Company we pride ourselves on offering gemstones that combine natural character with careful finishing, and this Mozambique cabochon ruby is a beautiful example of that commitment. If you are considering this stone for a bespoke commission or an immediate setting, we can provide additional detailed photographs, mounting suggestions, and guidance on care to ensure longevity, such as avoiding exposure to harsh chemicals and extreme thermal shock, and recommending secure bezel settings for cabochons. Please contact The Natural Ruby Company for pricing, certification options, and to discuss how this warm and luminous ruby can be incorporated into a signature piece that will be cherished for years to come.
