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

This matched pair of Brazilian yellow citrines presents a precise combination of proportions and finish that will appeal to technically minded buyers, each stone cut to a round shape in a mixed brilliant cut. The larger is 1.86 carats with dimensions 7.87 x 7.89 x 5.84 mm, the smaller is 1.74 carats with dimensions 7.99 x 8.08 x 5.27 mm. Faceting follows a mixed brilliant schema, combining a brilliant style crown to maximize face up scintillation with a step influenced pavilion to deepen the color window and create controlled contrast. Clarity is evaluated as eye clean at customary viewing distance, which allows uninterrupted light transmission through the pavilion and crown facets. Color is medium intensity yellow, enhanced by standard heat treatment to stabilize and intensify the honey to golden tones typical of Brazilian citrine. The excellent polish is evident at facet junctions and feather edgework, producing crisp facet reflections and minimal surface diffusion, which together ensure efficient white light return and consistent facet contrast under both daylight and artificial illumination.

When placed side by side the two stones exhibit complementary reflective behavior that enhances the overall visual effect. The first stone, with a relatively deeper profile at a depth ratio of approximately 74 percent, favors a stronger contrast pattern and a more concentrated internal return, producing pronounced flashes of golden saturation and defined contrast lines. The second stone, with a shallower profile at a depth ratio of approximately 66 percent, emphasizes broad face up brightness and more widespread scintillation across the table, presenting a lighter, more luminous golden spread. Together the deeper contrast of the larger stone and the broader brilliance of the smaller stone create a layered optical interaction, where localized flashes from one piece play against the even brightness of the other, increasing perceived depth and movement. Because dispersion in citrine is modest, the principal visual appeal derives from controlled white light return, facet edge brightness, and warm body color, all of which are optimized here through precise cutting and excellent polish. This pair, offered by The Natural Gemstone Company, is engineered to deliver a balanced interplay of brilliance and warmth, suitable for matched earring settings or a paired center and accent configuration.
