Comment: A darker cinnamon hue, instead of purple as secondary color, made this 0.15 not ruby but sapphire. As images show, a mild but deep hue. Same top-10% quality as its sisters/brothers, without window, visible inclusions or treatment but different in appearance. A milder pink, deeper hue, less purple. Efficient cutting, no belly, allows for optimum face-up. Best set flush (aka drop or channel) into a band up to size 6. From a parcel of untreated pink-red corundum, all appearing very similar in the rough but once cut they spread out from color-change sapphire to neon ruby, showing how hard judgement of rough can be.
