Your gemstone is set into the design you choose. Every pairing is reviewed by a SARATTI specialist before production begins.

The appeal of this 1.01 CTS Natural Mozambique Ruby begins with its vivid red color, a richly saturated appearance made more significant by the absence of detectable heat treatment. Independent gemological examination reports no indication of thermal treatment, an important distinction for a natural ruby of this caliber. Its color carries remarkable intensity, with a dominant red hue that remains expressive through variations in brightness across the gemstone. The accompanying laboratory appendix notes a resemblance in color saturation to GRS-type pigeon blood ruby, without strong fluorescence. This qualified comparison offers valuable context for its color quality without constituting a formal Pigeon Blood designation. Combined with its documented Mozambique origin, these characteristics establish a compelling identity for this collector-level gemstone.

The heart-shaped cut introduces a delicate balance between geometric precision and the natural behavior of light within ruby. Two rounded lobes meet at a defined central cleft before flowing into gently curved shoulders and a tapered point. Its brilliant/step faceting creates broad angular reflections across the central table, complemented by smaller flashes of crimson along the surrounding facets. In the supplied photographs, the center displays a deeper concentration of red, while brighter reflections emerge around the outer edges. These shifts in brightness lend the gemstone visual depth without diminishing its saturated appearance. The polished facet arrangement also preserves the recognizable heart silhouette, allowing the shape and color to contribute equally to its character.

Weighing 1.01 carats and measuring 5.26 × 5.97 × 3.82 mm, this ruby offers an intimate yet distinctive presence for an individually designed jewel. Its natural identity, vivid red color, Mozambique origin, and no-heat conclusion are documented by GRS GemResearch Swisslab. A refined platinum setting could provide a striking contrast against its saturated red body, while discreet diamond accents might enhance the heart outline without overwhelming its proportions. Offered as a loose gemstone for private acquisition or a bespoke SARATTI commission, it presents an opportunity to create a personal heirloom defined by color, craftsmanship, and documented gemological character.

Why we chose this stone

Pigeon Blood Red: the reason to look twice.

Rich pigeon’s blood red gives this 1.01-carat ruby a confident first impression. The heart cut adds a softer line to the intense color, while the faceted face brings flashes of brighter red. Its unheated status is recorded in the GRS report.

Some reds are worth
building slowly around.

Chromium makes a fine ruby give light back, but only if the setting lets light in. So the pavilion stays open and the seat is cut before the metal is finished. A ring for every day, a pendant kept close, a piece handed on.

Size Guide

Use the SARATTI size guide to choose the right fit for your ring, bracelet, necklace, or made-to-order piece.

Is this the exact gemstone I will receive — and can I see more of it?

Yes. The gemstone shown on this page is the individual stone you are considering — not a representative image from a parcel.

We photograph and film the actual stone and do everything possible to show its color, proportions and character faithfully. Even so, gemstones can respond differently to daylight, warm interior light and different screens.

If you are uncertain, we can provide additional photographs or video and, where useful, reshoot the stone under different lighting or from another angle before you decide.

Can I confirm the gemstone is still available before I proceed?

Of course.

Send us the product link or reference and our concierge can confirm availability before you proceed.

For an important purchase, we would rather confirm first than have you make a decision around a stone that has already been spoken for.

How do I know which setting will suit this gemstone?

The builder presents settings intended to work with the gemstone you have selected.

Before production begins, the pairing is reviewed for proportion, security and suitability.

If we believe another setting, proportion or approach would serve the stone better, we will tell you before anything is made. The setting should serve the gemstone — not simply accommodate it.

What happens after I choose my gemstone and setting?

We confirm the important details with you before production begins.

That includes your gemstone, setting, metal, side stones where relevant, size, engraving and any personal details.

Nothing enters production until the final specification has been reviewed and approved.

Will I see the finished piece before it is sent?

Yes.

Once your piece is complete, it is photographed and filmed with your gemstone set into it.

Those images are sent to you before dispatch, so you can see the finished jewel before it leaves SARATTI.

How long will my piece take?

Made-to-order pieces generally require around three to four weeks from final approval to completion.

A loose gemstone purchased on its own can usually be prepared for dispatch much sooner.

If you are working towards a proposal, anniversary, birthday or travel date, tell us before ordering. We will let you know what is realistically possible rather than promise a date we cannot honour.

How will my order be delivered?

Your order is sent by insured courier with tracking and appropriate delivery security.

The route and carrier depend on destination and value.

Where duties or local taxes may apply, our concierge can explain the available delivery options before dispatch.

Can I return a loose gemstone?

A loose gemstone may be returned within fourteen days of delivery provided it remains unworn, unset and unaltered, with its packaging and documentation intact.

Please contact us before sending anything back so the return can be arranged securely.

What happens once the gemstone has been set?

A jewel created around your selected gemstone is made specifically for you.

Once the final specification has been approved and production has begun, the gemstone and materials are committed to your piece.

That is why we take time to confirm the details with you before making begins.

What if I am still unsure?

Then do not rush the decision.

We can help you compare this gemstone with another, look again at color or proportion, send additional imagery, discuss a setting or simply talk through what matters most to you.

The right stone should feel considered — not hurried.

What happens after I receive my piece?

Our relationship does not end at delivery.

SARATTI provides ongoing care for the jewelry we create, including inspection, cleaning and appropriate maintenance support as the piece is worn over time.

If anything ever concerns you, speak with us before attempting repair or alteration elsewhere.
