Two carats. Untreated. Mozambique. For those who know their rubies, that is already a complete sentence.
But let's take it step by step. Mozambican rubies have earned their place among the most coveted stones on the market – their rich, vivid red with a distinctive warmth is instantly recognizable. This stone carries that origin with confidence. GLA and Lotus Gemology have each examined it independently, and both confirm: no indications of heat treatment. The ruby is exactly as nature produced it, unaltered.
What stands out immediately are the proportions. At 8.98 × 8.00 mm with a depth of just 2.88 mm, this is a notably flat stone for its weight. The face-up surface is correspondingly generous – set in a mounting, it presents with real authority, almost table-like in its spread. For a ring stone with maximum visual impact, that is a compelling characteristic. The very minor inclusions are barely a consideration.
Lotus Gemology in Bangkok is not an everyday address. The laboratory specializes in corundum and is considered a reference point in professional circles. Buying a ruby with a Lotus report means buying with certainty.
