5.19 Ct. Ametrine from Brazil

This 5.19 carat cushion shape bi color ametrine offers a refined balance of violet and golden tones that stands apart from other sources, the cushion mixed brilliant cut and excellent polish deliver crisp facet reflections that make the dual hues sing. Compared to classic Bolivian ametrine from the Anahi mine, which often exhibits deep, saturated purple and rich honeyed citrine in dramatic contrast, this Brazilian stone leans to a medium light color intensity that reads as more elegant and wearable for everyday jewelry, rather than bold and theatrical. Against Uruguayan and Siberian amethyst, which are prized for their deep, cool violet saturation, this ametrine presents a softer violet with a warm citrine wash that avoids the inky tones of those amethysts, offering greater versatility in settings and skin tones. When set beside Brazilian citrine, which can show strong yellow to orange tones, the citrine portion of this ametrine is comparatively pale and refined, creating a gentle transition rather than a stark division, which many collectors prefer for its subtler, more sophisticated bi color effect.

From a clarity and cut perspective this piece competes strongly with gemstones from other celebrated localities, the eye clean clarity at eye level rivals the best faceted stones from Zambia and Sri Lanka, where transparency and lack of visible inclusions are highly valued. The mixed brilliant cut maximizes light return and helps balance the dual colors, a trait you do not always find in rough or poorly cut ametrine, especially in larger sizes. At 13.40 by 9.36 by 6.76 mm this gem offers substantial presence on a ring or pendant, with proportions that echo the proportions of premium Brazilian cut gems rather than the sometimes squat profiles of commercial pieces. The heat treatment is a common enhancement, used responsibly to stabilize and gently intensify tone while maintaining natural character, a practice that preserves value while improving wearability. At The Natural Gemstone Company we present this ametrine as a superior choice for customers wanting a unique bi color gem that blends the softness of Brazilian violet with a refined citrine wash, offering exceptional value compared to rarer Bolivian pieces and greater everyday appeal than the deeper amethysts from Uruguay or Siberia.
