Description
This beautiful stone has a wonderful golden luster to it, with excellent faceting and a very good cut for stone of this size. Most commercially cut stones are poorly cut with scratches and pooly met facetes. This one is not that. It is a wonderful example of a master cut stone.
Stats:
16.9 carats
13.1mm x 18.09mm x 10.07mm deep
Clarity: Loupe clean (10x power)
Treatment: Not known***I suspect that this stone has not been heated due to its lighter tone for its size, however I lack the documentation to back up this claim.
Citrine is the traditional birthstone for November (Along with golden/precious topaz)
It is also the Jupiter stone for Jyotish gemstones. A jyotish stone must be eye clean, and unheated and in the case of citrine over 4 carats to prove effective.
Remarks:
Emerald cut stones are often windowed or glassy looking, but this stone has a good internal refraction and lacks windowing making it an ideal stone for a pendant or large statement ring,or even a cuff bracelet. It will sit well in a full bezel as the light is properly reflected back up to the surface and not lost through the back of the stone.
Shipping will include tracking and postal insurance.
