Description from the seller

Mozambique Natural Ruby – 11.33 ct – Heart Shape – Lotus Gold Certificate

Natural 11.33 carat ruby from Mozambique, cut in a heart shape, accompanied by its Lotus Gold certificate.

This stone stands out for its significant weight, expressive heart cut, and red to pink-red color. It offers a strong visual presence and could suit an original jewelry creation, especially as a pendant or as the centerpiece of a custom piece.

According to the Lotus Gold report, the stone is a natural ruby, from Mozambique, with no indication of heating or treatment. In daylight, the color is described as red, with rich saturation and a medium tone.

The ruby displays natural inclusions visible, consistent with a natural stone of this size. Its transparency is noted as semi-transparent on the Lotus certificate. These characteristics give the stone a pronounced natural appearance, while maintaining a strong decorative presence thanks to its volume, shape, and color.

Photos were taken under controlled lighting of about 5500K to render the color neutrally. Slight color variations may occur depending on the screen, ambient lighting, or actual observing conditions.
