24.40 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight Citrine Pair from Brazil

This exceptional matched pair of marquise citrines from Brazil presents an uncommon fusion of size, color, and clarity that I am proud to offer through The Natural Gemstone Company, a company known for sourcing only the most distinguished natural stones. Individually they weigh 11.28 carats and 13.12 carats, and their generous dimensions of 20.10 by 13.76 by 7.89 millimeters and 20.16 by 13.92 by 8.84 millimeters give them an imposing, elegant presence that is rare in matched sets. Cut in a mixed brilliant style, the facets have been executed to maximize both scintillation and depth, resulting in a lively, inviting play of light across their marquise silhouettes. Their hue reads as a compelling yellowish orange with intense color saturation, a tone that balances sunlit warmth with the sophistication of a deeper, more golden palette. Clarity is eye clean at viewing distance, ensuring that the surface and interior remain remarkably free of visible inclusions, and the excellent polish enhances both surface brilliance and the stone to metal relationship if set in bespoke jewelry. For full transparency, these citrines have been heat treated, a standard and stable enhancement used to deepen and even out their tone, and their Brazilian origin contributes provenance that seasoned collectors recognize and value. There are few opportunities to acquire a pair of marquise citrines of this scale and consistency, making this a discreet, exclusive offering for collectors and designers who demand both rarity and immediate wearable beauty.

When compared to other warm tone gemstones, this matched pair occupies a very particular and desirable aesthetic niche, distinct from pale lemon citrines, golden topaz, and yellow sapphires. Against the more common pale or light citrines, which can appear almost watery in larger sizes, these stones project a concentrated, honeyed orange glow that reads as confident and mature, holding its color even in softer interior light. Compared to yellow or golden topaz, which often exhibits a clearer, more crystalline blue white sparkle, these citrines favor a warmer, more enveloping radiance that feels luminous rather than icy, a quality that flatters warm skin tones and paired gold settings. Relative to yellow sapphires, which carry a harder, more clinical saturation and a price point elevated by rarity and hardness, these citrines offer equal visual warmth and a softer, more embracing fire at a more accessible rarity bracket, particularly given their combined substantial carat weight and matched faceting. The mixed brilliant marquise cut further distinguishes them from the step cuts commonly used in other gem types, imparting a distinctive balance of brilliance and depth that catches the eye without appearing brash. In an era when many matched pairs are assembled from stones with compromising differences in tone or cut, this duo stands out for near parity in dimensions and hue, with only a subtle, natural weight variance that attests to their origin as natural, individually formed crystals rather than manufactured imitations. That natural individuality, harmonized by expert cutting and polish, is precisely what discerning clients seek when they wish to own something that is both harmonious and unmistakably unique.

For those who view gemstones as the final, defining touch in bespoke jewelry, this pair of marquise citrines offers limitless possibilities and a rare chance to join a very select group of owners. Envision them set as dramatic matched finger stones in a pair of custom earrings, as a tête-à-tête ring ensemble for statement making, or as the focal points of a luxury bracelet or brooch crafted in warm gold tones to echo their orange glow. Their size and clarity permit creative mounting techniques that play to the mixed brilliant cut, introducing light into the pavilion and allowing the stones to sing in motion. Because genuinely large, color-intense matched pairs are scarce, each acquisition is effectively a membership into an exclusive circle of collectors and admirers who understand that great gemstones are an investment in rarity and provenance as much as in beauty. At The Natural Gemstone Company we curate such opportunities with discretion and care, assisting in custom design, secure purchase, and certification to ensure the stones’ attributes are fully documented. If you are seeking a pair that will remain a conversation centerpiece for years to come, and a piece that signifies refined taste and ownership of something genuinely uncommon, these Brazilian marquise citrines represent an exceptional, limited opportunity to own a matched set of remarkable scale, warmth, and presence.
