This is a great Mozambique ruby for those looking for a big stone without spending too much, at over 8x7mm it faces up much larger than its weight would suggest due to its depth of 2.7mm. A stone that was overly deep could be up to a carat heavier which would add significantly to the price for a stone that looks the same size. Though some sparkle is sacrificed from within the stone it has a nice solid colour and high polish and in a closed setting will perform very well.

This piece has undergone regular heat treatment and is not glass filled.
