6.67 Ct. Madeira Citrine from Brazil

This specimen is a transparent 6.67 carat madeira citrine presented in a classic emerald cut shape, with exact dimensions of 14.11 x 10.12 x 6.49 mm. The cutting emphasizes linear facets and broad, flat planes that produce a deep pavilion reflection and a controlled play of light across the table, yielding consistent color dispersion. The clarity grade is described as very, very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, and the stone delivers notable visual cleanliness to the naked eye. Color is a distinctive reddish orange with an intense color intensity, and the surface shows an excellent polish. The material has been heat treated, a standard and stable enhancement for citrine, and its documented origin is Brazil. These technical attributes combine to offer a gem that balances presence and wearable scale, with topography and transparency that support precise, architectural settings in contemporary or traditional jewelry designs.

When set in jewelry this reddish orange madeira citrine complements a broad range of skin tones through contrasts and harmonies that can be tailored by metal choice and setting style. On fair to light skin tones the gem reads as warm and saturated, providing a lively focal point that enlivens cool undertones without appearing overpowering. Pairing the stone with yellow gold enhances its orange warmth and creates a classic, luminous effect, while a rose gold mount will soften transitions and introduce a subtle, romantic cohesion. On medium and olive skin tones the citrine integrates with natural warmth, appearing rich and resonant. The stone benefits from a bezel or halo that allows controlled light entry, preserving depth while emphasizing brilliance. On deeper skin tones the reddish orange hue produces a striking contrast, appearing vivid and jewel like, particularly when set in white gold or platinum to frame the color with a neutral coolness, or when combined with brushed or matte metal surfaces to accentuate color saturation. For all tones the emerald cut presents clean lines that lend refinement and ensure the color reads uniformly across the surface.

Design and practical considerations focus on maximizing visual impact while maintaining wearability and durability. The proportions of 14.11 x 10.12 x 6.49 mm make this piece well suited for a statement ring or a pendant with an upright orientation, where the emerald cut can showcase step facets and internal glow. For rings, a protective bezel or partial bezel setting reduces exposure of the pavilion and corners, while a four corner prong setting preserves light performance and reveals faceting structure. A halo of small accent stones can increase perceived size and add scintillation without diluting the citrine’s deep tone, and a contemporary channel or tension setting can complement the stone’s geometry for a minimalist aesthetic. Routine care involves avoiding sudden temperature extremes and prolonged exposure to household chemicals, cleaning with mild warm soapy water and a soft brush, and periodic professional inspection of the setting. Each gem is supplied and presented with integrity by The Natural Gemstone Company, with full disclosure of enhancement and origin to support informed selection, and with the option to discuss bespoke mounting recommendations tailored to personal preference and lifestyle.
