3.86 Ct. Greenish Yellow (Lemon Quartz) Quartz from Madagascar

This greenish yellow lemon quartz from Madagascar speaks to a lineage of beauty that stretches back to antiquity, when quartz was prized by many cultures for clarity and light. At 3.86 carats, this transparent oval gem measures 11.69 x 9.54 x 5.74 mm, and its mixed brilliant faceting offers a balanced interplay of fire and scintillation that recalls classic gemstone cutting traditions. The light color intensity and excellent polish allow the stone to catch the eye with a gentle, sunny glow, while the very slightly included clarity, evaluated at eye level, confirms its natural character. Unenhanced and honest in origin, this gem embodies the timeless appeal collectors and connoisseurs expect from heritage pieces, and at The Natural Gemstone Company we celebrate that continuity by offering gemstones that honor both nature and craftsmanship.

Beyond its storied aesthetic, this lemon quartz is well suited to daily wear, combining enduring physical properties with thoughtful cutting that enhances durability. Quartz ranks seven on the Mohs scale of hardness, giving it solid resistance to everyday scratches and abrasions, while its mixed brilliant cut and excellent polish reduce the risk of surface wear by distributing contact across a well formed faceted profile. The oval shape at these proportions makes the gem versatile for rings, pendants, and everyday pieces, allowing secure settings that protect the girdle and pavilion. Because this stone is natural and untreated, its stability under normal wearing conditions is reliable, and its very slightly included clarity will not compromise structural integrity. For long lasting enjoyment, we recommend standard gemstone care, such as avoiding prolonged exposure to strong chemicals and extreme temperature changes, and having settings checked periodically to ensure prongs and bezels remain secure. As part of our promise at The Natural Gemstone Company, this lemon quartz is presented with exacting attention to detail, so it can be treasured as a daily heirloom that links classic tradition with modern life.
