This 1.02 CTS Natural Mozambique Ruby brings together three important documented characteristics: pigeon's blood color, Mozambique origin, and no indication of thermal enhancement. GUILD records its color grade as Vivid Red and its trade name as Pigeon's Blood, giving the stone a concentrated, richly saturated red identity. At just over one carat, the heart-shaped outline has a distinctive presence, with a defined central cleft, rounded upper lobes, and a tapered point creating a strong yet elegant silhouette.

The modified brilliant cut introduces an active arrangement of facets that produces changing flashes of vivid red as the gemstone moves. Across the supplied views, areas of deeper red alternate with brighter reflections, giving the Ruby noticeable visual movement rather than a flat face-up appearance. Its proportions of 5.42 × 6.00 × 3.93 mm create a slightly elongated heart profile, allowing the shape to read clearly while maintaining substantial depth. Natural internal characteristics remain visible within the stone and contribute to its individual crystal character.

GUILD identifies the gemstone as natural corundum, variety of natural ruby, of Mozambican origin, and records no indication of thermal enhancement. This no-heat conclusion is particularly meaningful for a Ruby at this level and, together with its documented Pigeon's Blood designation and Vivid Red color, supports its position as a serious center stone. It is well suited to private acquisition as a loose gemstone or to an individually engineered SARATTI ring or pendant where the heart silhouette can remain the focal point.

July Birthstone

Ruby is the traditional birthstone for July and is widely associated with the zodiac sign Cancer. It is also recognized for the 15th and 40th wedding anniversaries, making it a significant choice for milestone jewelry.

Design Invitation

The heart silhouette and saturated red color make this ruby particularly suited to an individually designed center-stone jewel. Platinum or white gold can create a crisp contrast around the rich red tone, while yellow gold can give the finished piece a warmer character.

A refined solitaire, restrained diamond surround, or bespoke pendant architecture could emphasize the heart outline without overwhelming the gemstone.

This ruby may be acquired loose or developed through SARATTI's bespoke jewelry service.

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

HANDPICKED

Chosen with judgement — looking beyond the certificate to colour, character, proportion and presence.

HANDCRAFTED

Each piece is considered around the stone, with proportion, setting, comfort and finish working together.

HEARTFELT

Personal guidance and thoughtful creation shaped around the person, the moment and what the piece is meant to become.

CARED FOR, AFTERWARDS

Secure delivery and ongoing care long after the piece leaves our hands.

Why we chose this stone

Pigeon Blood Red: the reason to look twice.

This ruby ​​stands out for the depth of its pigeon's blood color and its expressive heart cut. Bright red flashes break through the richer body color as the stone moves, giving it warmth and character. Its unheated origin and GUILD report make it an especially appealing choice for a meaningful one-of-a-kind jewel.

Natural ruby ring with an open pavilion so the chromium red returns light | SARATTI Red ruby gemstone hand-set in fine jewellery, seat cut before the metal is finished | SARATTI

HANDCRAFTED

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.

Before you decide

Questions worth asking.

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.
