Collectors and connoisseurs often look for a combination of presence, provenance, and enduring beauty, and this transparent red ruby delivers on every front. We understand that your collection must reflect discerning taste, and that each addition should be both visually compelling and technically sound. This oval shape gem weighs 4.28 carats, measuring 13.05 by 8.98 by 3.54 mm, and its vivid red color immediately commands attention. It is the kind of stone that rests comfortably in a bespoke setting or sits proudly in a private cabinet, offering a rare balance of size and color intensity that many collectors pursue for years.

From a gemological perspective this ruby presents attributes that matter to serious buyers. The mixed brilliant cut maximizes fire and scintillation while preserving the saturation of the rich red hue. The clarity grade is slightly included when evaluated at eye level, which means the stone shows natural internal characteristics without compromising its transparency and visual impact. Its polish is excellent, resulting in a smooth surface that reflects light with a crisp, lively finish. This ruby has been heat treated, a stable and widely accepted enhancement that improves color and clarity without altering the stone in ways that diminish its value. Origin is Mozambique, a source known for producing rubies with robust color and attractive crystal habit, which adds an important layer of provenance for collectors attentive to geographic origin and market trends.

Imagine this ruby as the keystone of a collection, the gem that resolves the search for both everyday wearable glamour and long term investment appeal. In a classic solitaire setting it would read as timeless elegance, suitable for an heirloom engagement ring or a statement piece for gala occasions. Set within a cluster of diamonds the vivid red would sing against the white sparkle of fine stones, creating a museum quality contrast that is both dramatic and refined.
