AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Mozambican Natural Ruby - Exceptional 181.90 ct (36.40 g) - Rough/Monocrystal - Untreated
Up for auction is an exceptional and imposing specimen of natural ruby originating from Mozambique, characterized by an extraordinary carat weight of 181.90 carats (total weight 36.40 grams).
This magnificent rough monocrystal presents a well-defined and proportionate tabular shape, with generous dimensions of 3.4 x 3.4 x 1 cm.
The absolute highlight of this specimen is its total authenticity: it is a completely natural and untreated ruby (no thermal treatment or lead-glass filling), a feature increasingly rare and sought after on the international market for investment-grade gems.
As visible in the photographs, the crystal shows an extraordinary reaction and very strong fluorescence when backlit or exposed to targeted light, revealing a vivid and intense red-pink color, typical of the finest Mozambique deposits. The surface preserves the fascinating patterns and natural inclusions of the host rock, testifying to its geological authenticity.
A display-perfect piece for high-level mineral collectors, gemology enthusiasts, or as a cutting-grade investment material for skilled lapidaries.
