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

This matched pair of Brazilian citrines offered by The Natural Gemstone Company presents an exceptional combination of weight, proportions, and optical performance, ideal for buyers who appreciate factual gemological detail. The stones weigh 2.52 carats and 2.59 carats respectively, with round shapes and dimensions of 9.13 by 9.10 by 5.89 millimeters, and 8.99 by 9.08 by 6.13 millimeters. Both are mixed brilliant cuts, a cutting style that combines a brilliant faceted crown with a carefully calibrated pavilion to maximize light return and scintillation. The cutters achieved excellent polish, and the facet junctions and symmetry are well executed, which together translate to bright, lively performance when worn. Color is described as medium intensity yellow, a tone that offers warm presence without becoming too saturated, and the clarity grade is very very slightly included at eye level, meaning the gems appear clean to the naked eye while minor inclusions are observable only under magnification. These stones have been heat treated, a standard and stable enhancement for citrine that optimizes tone and removes brownish or gray zoning, and they originate from Brazil, a recognized source for high quality citrine material.

From a practical and aesthetic standpoint these citrines are valuable to an educated buyer because they balance natural origin, durable material properties, and meticulous craftsmanship. Citrine is a variety of quartz with good surface durability and suitability for daily wear in earrings or pendants, and the near nine millimeter sizes create a meaningful visual presence without overpowering a design. The mixed brilliant cutting yields a concentrated star of light across the table with a lively crown sparkle and strong pavilion return, producing both scintillation and a pleasing dispersion effect under varied lighting. The slightly different pavilion depths between the two stones are within acceptable tolerances and have been paired to achieve matched appearance in tone and brightness. Heat treatment is disclosed, and because it is permanent and widely accepted in the trade it does not detract from long term stability or value when documented. For buyers seeking a balanced investment in beauty and gemological integrity, these Brazilian citrines from The Natural Gemstone Company offer transparent provenance, clean appearance, fine cut quality, and an energetic light display that will read as refined and enduring in a finished piece.
