A natural round-cut ruby from Madagascar, weighing 1.17 carats and measuring 5.9mm. The round brilliant outline at 5.9mm returns light evenly across the face, and the body color is a purplish-red - a cooler, purple-modified red that represents this stone's genuine unenhanced color. Transparent with SI clarity, the color shows confidently face-up through the round form without any heat treatment to alter it.

An untreated, over-one-carat round-cut ruby from Madagascar is a specific and somewhat uncommon combination in the market - most material at this weight is heat-treated, and round cuts are less frequent than ovals or pears. Madagascar produces ruby with a natural range of colors, and purplish-red unheated specimens carry additional interest for collectors and buyers who prioritize documented untreated status. At 5.9mm and 1.17ct, this is a workable size for a solitaire ring feature stone.
