5.01 Ct. Ruby from Mozambique

From the mines of Mozambique to the annals of royal jewelry cabinets, rubies have always carried the weight of history and the whisper of timeless prestige, and this exceptional stone from The Natural Ruby Company is a direct continuation of that lineage. We present a GRS certified, natural, no enhancement red ruby weighing 5.01 carats, cut into a classical cushion shape with mixed brilliant faceting, and precise dimensions of 11.72 by 8.36 by 4.65 millimeters, with an excellent polish that brings every facet to life. Its vivid color intensity recalls the crimson hues favored by monarchs and collectors for centuries, while its very slightly included clarity evaluated at eye level ensures a transparency and brilliance that read as eye-clean to most observers, making it ideal for a bold, unmistakable statement piece.

A ruby of this size and clarity is rare without enhancement, and it is precisely those qualities that make it perfect as the centerpiece of an heirloom ring or an elegant pendant that will be worn and passed down for generations. The cushion silhouette and mixed brilliant cut balance classic formality with modern scintillation, producing a deep, velvety glow that fills large settings without losing sparkle or depth. At five carats, this ruby commands attention on the hand, yet its proportions and polish allow it to sit comfortably and confidently in a variety of settings, from a traditional four or six prong solitaire to a more intricate vintage mount that underscores its historical resonance. As specialists in natural rubies, The Natural Ruby Company can advise on settings that protect and showcase the gem, drawing on the long tradition of craftsmanship that has surrounded these stones since antiquity. This Mozambique ruby is more than a gem, it is a legacy waiting to be set, a vivid chapter of color and clarity that will define any fine jewelry creation with authority and grace.
