An exceptional 8.96 carat Natural Unheated Ruby displaying a captivating purplish-red color and an elegant cushion mixed cut. This remarkable gemstone exhibits attractive transparency and natural internal characteristics that authenticate its natural origin while contributing to its unique individuality and charm.

Expertly fashioned in a classic cushion cut, the gemstone combines the brilliance of a round cut with the refined elegance of a square silhouette.

The carefully arranged facets enhance light return and visual depth, giving the ruby a vibrant and sophisticated presence.

This ruby exhibits natural inclusions and internal growth features commonly associated with genuine natural corundum. These characteristics are part of the stone’s natural formation process and serve as evidence of its authenticity.
