767 Carat Natural Ruby, PGJDC Lab-Tested — Pakistan

A rare, exceptionally large pear-shaped ruby weighing 767 carats, lab-tested and certified natural by PGJDC (Pakistan Gems and Jewellery Development Company). Origin & Sourcing Ruby is one of the signature gemstones of Gilgit-Baltistan, historically associated with the Hunza Valley, and this stone was sourced directly from the region without passing through resellers. Its size alone makes it unusual — gem-quality rubies over a few hundred carats are rare anywhere in the world, and most material this large is valued as a striking display or collector piece rather than cut down for jewelry. Certification This stone has been tested and certified as a natural ruby by PGJDC, Pakistan's government gem identification and certification authority, with testing facilities across the country including Gilgit. The certificate confirms the stone's natural origin. Color & Cut The ruby is cut in a large pear shape with faceted crown and pavilion, showing a deep reddish-purple tone that reads darker and more opaque than a small, fully transparent ruby — typical of stones at this size and density. Light plays across the facets rather than passing fully through the stone. What to Expect Color and internal character are consistent with a natural, untreated ruby of this size — some opacity and internal texture are expected, not a defect Exact tone can shift slightly depending on lighting, as with any large colored gemstone Comes as a loose stone, suited to display, a collection, or a custom setting given its size
