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

Long before these two oval yellow citrines found their way into the careful hands of cutters and collectors, they began as warm, molten stories within the earth of Brazil. Born from cooling pockets of silica rich fluids that threaded through ancient volcanic host rock, each crystal slowly grew layer by measured layer, capturing light and time within its lattice. When our sourcing team at The Natural Gemstone Company first encountered the rough, the promise of a matched pair was obvious, two stones that shared hue and depth as if they had been cut from the same pulse of the earth. The finished gems weigh 3.29 carats and 3.21 carats respectively, with dimensions of 10.99 by 8.91 by 5.98 mm and 10.91 by 8.89 by 6.17 mm, their oval outlines chosen to honor the original crystallographic flow. Transparent and eye catching, each gem shows medium color intensity that reads as a vivid golden yellow, clarity graded as eye clean when viewed at eye level, and an excellent polish that returns light in warm, dancing flashes. To achieve the most desirable saturation and uniformity, the pair has been gently heat treated, a well understood and stable enhancement that elevates their natural beauty while remaining true to their Brazilian origin.

The journey from rough to refined took place under the seasoned hands of cutter and grader, each decision made to maximize brilliance and balance between the two stones. The mixed brilliant cut was selected to marry the scintillation of a brilliant with the graceful proportions of an oval, allowing light to enter wide and refract through layered facets that create that signature citrine fire. Our cutter paid particular attention to matching table sizes, pavilion depths, and facet patterns so the pair would sit as harmonious companions in any design. When compared to famous matched gemstone pairs held in museums and private collections, such as paired Kashmir sapphires or twin Paraiba tourmalines that have historically commanded attention for their perfect symmetry and matched color, these citrines present a comparable level of harmony for their species. They do not try to imitate diamonds or sapphires, rather they stand in their own right as matched golden companions, offering clarity, proportion, and polish that recall the standards of high jewelry pairs, while carrying the warmer, more accessible personality of fine citrine.

Imagine these stones set as a refined pair of earrings, a double halo ring, or as mirror image centerpieces in bespoke pendants, each setting playing off their measured dimensions and vibrant tone. On the hand their combined visual weight and oval proportions read as elegant and wearable, lending a sunny centerpiece that complements both cool and warm metals. The heat treatment performed is routine in the trade and stable under normal wear, and the eye clean clarity means inclusions will not interrupt the visual story, leaving only pure golden light and sparkle. At The Natural Gemstone Company we stand behind the provenance, cutting and grading that shape this pair, and we invite you to consider them alongside the storied matched gems of the world, knowing they bring their own Brazilian narrative and refined craftsmanship to any design. If you seek a matched pair that balances museum worthy matching with everyday elegance, these 3.29 carat and 3.21 carat oval citrines are ready to become the next chapter in your jewelry story.
