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

Citrine has been cherished across cultures for its warm presence and luminous clarity, admired for centuries as a gem that captures the essence of sunlight and the comfort of golden afternoons. In ancient times citrine was used in signet rings and talismans, valued as much for its bright temperament as for its durability, and those traditions continue to inform modern jewelry design. Sourced from the storied mines of Brazil, these pear shape orangish yellow citrines arrive with a provenance that recalls a long lineage of artisanal cutting and careful selection. The Natural Gemstone Company honors that lineage by presenting this pair as an homage to classical beauty, a set that feels at once historic and perfectly at home in contemporary settings, a testament to gems that age like fine heirlooms.

The pair consists of two beautifully transparent citrines weighing 1.83 carats and 1.66 carats respectively, each fashioned in a graceful pear silhouette that flatters both the hand and the eye. The larger stone measures 10.12 by 6.75 by 5.11 mm, the companion measures 10.02 by 6.92 by 5.02 mm, dimensions that speak to meticulous cutting and a desire for harmony rather than exact uniformity. Both stones are cut in a mixed brilliant style, a choice that brings scintillation and depth to the orangish yellow palette, and they have been evaluated as eye clean at eye level, ensuring clarity that reads as calm and pure to the observer. Their color intensity is medium and expressive, a warm tone that nods to autumnal light, and an excellent polish elevates the facets so that each movement is translated into a soft and continuous glow. Enhancement by heat treatment is noted, a traditional and stable process that fine tunes the hue while preserving the gem core, and the Brazilian origin enhances their story, connecting each piece to a terroir known for producing citrines of dependable warmth and clarity.

What makes this pair especially compelling for classic and timeless designs is the way the stones complement one another in both size and hue. The slight difference in weight and proportion creates a deliberate asymmetry that feels elegant rather than mismatched, a balance that designers have long used to add character to paired settings, mirrored necklaces, or offset stud configurations. The orangish yellow tones are closely aligned, with one stone offering a touch more depth and the other presenting a slightly brighter face, together forming a dialogue of light that reads as cohesive and intentional. In a vintage inspired setting the pear forms will evoke old world charm, while in a minimalist bezel they will read as refined and modern, proving the enduring versatility of citrine. The Natural Gemstone Company presents these stones not simply as materials, but as potential heirs, pieces that invite craftsmanship and will carry a legacy forward through wear and story. For collectors and designers seeking a pair that speaks to tradition, warmth, and measured elegance, these Brazilian citrines offer a rare combination of provenance, polish, and proportion.
