6.12 Ct. Ruby from Mozambique

Deep beneath the ancient, sun-drenched earth of Mozambique lies a treasure that has taken millennia to form. Nestled within rich soil and resilient rocks, this ruby began its journey as mineral elements slowly crystallized into a gem of unmatched beauty. Born from the powerful interplay of heat and pressure, with the earth itself as its craftsman, this ruby has traveled the long and winding path from the depths of the land to the light of day. This isn't just any ruby; it is a 6.12 carat masterpiece of nature, destined to captivate and inspire.

This extraordinary gemstone we hold in reverence is an oval-shaped purplish-red ruby, as bold and beautiful as the lands from which it hails. The tones of this ruby call to mind the rich red hues of the famed Burmese rubies, yet it possesses a unique vitality all its own, derived from its Mozambican roots. Its purplish undertones bring to mind the mysteries of the Kashmir sapphires, imbuing it with a depth of color that is both regal and compelling. Brilliantly nestled at the intersection of these influences, our Mozambique ruby stands as a testament to the earth's prowess in crafting singularly exquisite gems.

As we draw it closer, examining under the scrutiny of light, we see that it has been expertly crafted into an oval shape.

Every cut facet is a brushstroke on a masterpiece, the mixed brilliant cut creating a scintillating dance of light within its crystalline core. Even while very slightly included, its clarity retains a fascinating secret that adds dimension to its vibrant narrative. Its vivid color intensity is reminiscent of those fiery Thai rubies renowned for their brilliance, yet it encompasses a freshness that is solely its own, indigenous to Mozambique’s landscapes.
