Ruby faceted; 9 x 5 mm; Mozambique; 1 unique piece

Faceted Ruby, 9 x 5 mm, from Mozambique – 1 unique piece

This faceted Ruby from Mozambique measures 9 × 5 mm and displays the intense vivid pinkish-red to deep ruby-red color characteristic of this renowned source. The elegant, slightly pear-shaped cut enhances the depth of color while allowing light to reflect cleanly across the faceted surfaces. Fine natural inclusions—typical for rubies—add internal character without diminishing the stone’s attractive brightness. Due to its size and strong coloration, this piece is ideal for high-quality jewelry or as an impressive standalone collector’s gem.

Geology & Origin

Mozambique has become one of the world’s premier sources of high-quality rubies. These stones form in metamorphic environments, particularly within aluminum-rich gneisses and marbles. Chromium is the key trace element responsible for the ruby’s intense red coloration. Mozambican deposits are known for producing stones with strong saturation, good transparency and lively brilliance—all of which are clearly visible in this faceted specimen.
