3.79 Ct. Citrine from Brazil

This transparent 3.79 carat citrine presents an exemplary emerald cut, a classical step faceting scheme that emphasizes broad table facets, parallel crown and pavilion steps, and precisely beveled corners, resulting in a restrained, architectural brilliance. The stone measures 9.97 by 8.08 by 6.41 mm, and its intense orangish yellow hue is distributed with notable uniformity across the table and steps, producing a warm, saturated face up presentation. Clarity is described as very very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which for this specimen means inclusions are minimal, well positioned and do not interfere with sight lines through the table, allowing strong transparency and optimal light transmission. The polish is excellent, indicating careful lapidary finishing with crisp facet junctions and smooth facet planes, maximizing the stone s ability to reflect and transmit light. As a quartz variety, citrine exhibits a refractive index in the range consistent with gem quality quartz, and a Mohs hardness of 7, attributes that combine durability with attractive optical performance for both classic and contemporary settings. Enhancement is heat treated, a stable and widely accepted practice in citrine production that adjusts tone and saturation while preserving the integrity of the crystal structure.
