16.04 Ct. Citrine from Brazil

Imagine holding a sunlit moment in the palm of your hand, a jewel that feels like a warm memory ready to be worn. This one of a kind natural yellow citrine weighs 16.04 carats, and measures 16.89 by 13.49 by 11.24 millimeters, offering a generous presence that is both elegant and commanding. Cut into a classic oval shape with a mixed brilliant cut, it is fully transparent, with a clarity described as very slightly included evaluated at eye level. Its color is a cheerful medium light yellow, and it has an excellent polish that lets every facet sing. There has been no enhancement to alter its beauty, and it comes from the storied mines of Brazil, a birthplace of some of the world s most admired citrines. At The Natural Gemstone Company we gently select and present stones like this so the first sight of it feels like a promise kept, and the first touch feels like a celebration begun.

The geometric faceting of this citrine is what makes it truly alive, a precise arrangement of planes and angles that invites light to travel, reflect, and emerge as brilliance and fire. The mixed brilliant cut combines the lively scintillation of brilliant facets with the depth and elegance of traditional step facets, creating a kaleidoscope of golden flashes that move with the rhythm of the wearer. Each facet has been cut to exacting proportions so that light is captured from multiple directions, refracted through the stone s transparent body, and returned as an ever changing spectacle of glow and sparkle. The geometric layout on the pavilion and crown works in harmony, allowing maximum light play, bright centers and lively edges, a scintillation that is both sophisticated and joyful. The excellent polish ensures that each plane is a perfect mirror, making the gem dance with clarity and life, and reinforcing the idea that a fine cut is a stone s personality, as much as its color and weight.

Because this citrine is natural and unenhanced, its warm yellow tone is honest and enduring, a color that seems to carry sunlight within. The medium light color intensity provides a versatile hue that looks exquisite set in both warm and cool precious metals, and that shifts beautifully with different lighting situations, from golden afternoon rays to the softer glow of evening lamps. At 16.04 carats and with dimensions designed to make an impact, it sits gracefully on the hand as shown in photographs, a statement piece that also has intimacy and affection in its presence. The clarity grade of very slightly included evaluated at eye level speaks to a stone that reads as clean and transparent to the viewer, yet retains the tiny natural inclusions that tell a story of earth formed beauty, lending authenticity and character. The cut and polish invite craftsmanship to frame it, whether in a bespoke ring, a pendant that drapes close to the heart, or a one of a kind creation that will be treasured for years to come.
