1.16 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight Ruby Pair from Mozambique

This pair of natural rubies from The Natural Ruby Company presents a carefully matched set, each stone exhibiting exceptional transparency and a vivid red hue. The stones weigh 0.57 carats and 0.59 carats respectively, and are fashioned into classic pear shapes. The facets are executed in a mixed brilliant cut that balances scintillation with depth of color, producing lively internal reflections and a clean windowing free of dull areas. Clarity is graded as very very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which ensures that the visual face up appearance remains clean and highly appealing. The rubies are of Mozambique origin and have undergone no enhancement, a factor that preserves their natural character and supports use in discerning, high end jewellery designs.

The surface finish on both stones is of particular note, with an excellent polish that contributes directly to their desirability in premium settings. The polished facets are smooth and even, allowing light to travel unimpeded across and through the stones, which enhances both brilliance and color saturation. This smooth finish reduces the visibility of facet junctions under close inspection and provides a tactile quality that complements fine metal work. Designers seeking stones for refined creations will find these rubies respond well to classical and contemporary treatments, carrying prong, bezel, and halo settings with equal poise. When set, the polished surfaces admit a deeper, more vivid appearance, making the stones well suited to centrepiece applications or matched pairs in bespoke earrings.

Detailed proportions and measurements are provided to assist precise design planning. The first ruby measures 6.76 x 4.52 x 2.06 mm and the second ruby measures 6.79 x 4.57 x 2.25 mm, dimensions that demonstrate close consistency for balanced mounting. Both stones display the characteristic pear outline that lends itself to elongating design profiles and directional settings, providing visual draw and movement. The mixed brilliant cut contributes a controlled play of light, delivering flashes of brilliance without compromising the depth of the red tone. With vivid color intensity and a transparency that allows internal reflections to remain crisp, these rubies perform especially well when positioned to receive direct illumination. The absence of enhancement preserves the original optical properties and coloration, an important attribute for projects where natural provenance and untreated character are prioritized.

For clients and designers looking to integrate these rubies into high end jewellery, the pair offers both aesthetic and practical benefits. Their matching appearance and consistent polish streamline the design process, reducing the need for compensating adjustments in mounting or metal work. The smooth finish simplifies cleaning and maintenance, and the durable polish supports long term wear in pieces intended for frequent use. The Natural Ruby Company provides these rubies with provenance information and is available to supply additional images, directional views, or further measurements to aid setting and appraisal. These stones are presented as natural, unenhanced rubies from Mozambique, prepared with a degree of finish and uniformity that makes them an excellent choice for elevated, long lasting designs.
