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

This pair of pear shaped pinkish red rubies presents a technically disciplined offering for the serious jeweller, each stone precisely measured and carefully finished. The stones weigh 0.95 carats and 1.02 carats respectively, with dimensions of 7.49 x 5.66 x 2.48 mm and 7.89 x 5.61 x 2.43 mm, exhibiting a balanced pear outline with well formed points and gently rounded shoulders. Cut to a mixed brilliant pavilion and crown configuration, the faceting merges genuine brilliance with controlled light return, preserving color while enhancing scintillation. Clarity is graded slightly included as evaluated at eye level, with inclusions that do not significantly interrupt the visual field, allowing the intense color intensity to remain the dominant attribute. The polish is excellent, and the stones are entirely natural with no enhancement, originating from Mozambique, offering collectors the assurance of untreated provenance and optical stability.

For bespoke creations these rubies are exceptionally well suited, their near matching weights and complementary dimensions making them ideal for paired designs such as pierced earrings, matched ring and pendant sets, or mirrored accents in bespoke engagement or cocktail rings. The modest pavilion thickness and measured proportions allow for low profile bezels or classic prong settings without sacrificing presence, and the mixed brilliant cutting strategy facilitates halo and pavé surround options by providing predictable light behavior under accent stones. Designers will appreciate the intense hue for warm gold settings such as 18 karat yellow gold to accentuate pinkish red saturation, or for high contrast in platinum to emphasize tone depth. Practical considerations include protecting the pear points with bezel wings or prong hooks to ensure longevity in daily wear. The Natural Ruby Company is pleased to offer these stones as a matched pair for tailored commissions, and our team can provide setting recommendations, CAD visualization support, and precision matching services to ensure the stones are integrated into a final piece that optimizes their cut, color, and clarity.
