5.69 Ct. Yellowish Orange Citrine from Brazil

This transparent 5.69 carat oval yellowish orange citrine presents precise proportions and a refined finish, making it appropriate for both classic and contemporary jewelry designs. The oval outline measures 13.42 x 10.84 x 7.41 mm, providing a balanced table and depth ratio that contributes to stable faceting and consistent light performance. The cutting style is faceted with a mixed brilliant cut, combining a brilliant facet arrangement on the crown with more restrained pavilion faceting, and resulting in lively scintillation while preserving the stone's strong body color. Clarity is graded as very very slightly included at eye level, a designation that indicates minor internal characteristics that do not materially affect transparency or brilliance under normal viewing. Color intensity is recorded as intense, a descriptor that denotes a saturated yellowish orange hue with uniform distribution across the table and pavilion. The polish is excellent, yielding a smooth, reflective surface free of noticeable abrasions or polishing lines, and the gemstone is heat treated, a common and stable enhancement applied to improve color consistency and remove residual undertones. Origin is Brazil, a well established source for citrine, recognized for producing material with good color and structural integrity. The Natural Gemstone Company provides full disclosure of these technical attributes, ensuring that the gemmatic profile is available to the customer for informed evaluation.

Ethical sourcing is central to how this citrine is presented, and The Natural Gemstone Company maintains a documented procurement process in order to support responsible supply chain practices. The material originates from Brazilian deposits, and it is procured through vetted suppliers who adhere to local regulations and established environmental guidelines. Where possible, purchase pathways emphasize traceability, including documentation of mine origin and transactional records, enabling a clear record from extraction to market. The company engages with local partners who implement best practices for reducing environmental disturbance during extraction, and who promote safe working conditions for miners and on site personnel. These measures are intended to align with the expectations of consumers seeking conflict free and socially responsible gemstones, and the company encourages customers to request supply chain information prior to purchase. Heat treatment is fully disclosed throughout the offering, described as a low risk and industry accepted enhancement that stabilizes and improves color, and it is not used to conceal damage or to alter other material properties. This level of transparency supports ethical purchasing decisions, and allows collectors to understand both the natural and treated aspects of the stone.

For the conscious consumer this citrine offers a combination of aesthetic merit and responsible provenance, fitting into a considered collection that values traceability and material integrity. The stone’s intense yellowish orange color and mixed brilliant cut provide visual appeal suitable for solitary gemstone settings such as rings or pendants, and its dimensions and carat weight make it practical for designs that prioritize presence without excessive scale. The very very slightly included clarity and excellent polish contribute to a durable appearance, and citrine’s inherent stability makes it appropriate for everyday wear with routine care. Care recommendations include avoiding prolonged exposure to strong heat or direct sunlight, cleaning with mild soap and water and a soft brush, and avoiding harsh chemicals that could affect the mounting or stone surface. From an investment and stewardship perspective, the documented origin and disclosed treatment add to the gemstone’s provenance, supporting resale and appraisal processes where traceability and disclosure are increasingly valued. The Natural Gemstone Company stands ready to provide additional documentation, including a detailed report of the gem’s specifications and available provenance information, and to assist with questions about settings, care, and certification to ensure the piece integrates seamlessly into a responsible and thoughtfully curated collection.
