Citrine (large stone!)

Item Description

This a very attractive large Citrine gem with a beautiful "Rectangle Brilliant" cut. This stone has a fine golden yellow color and is nearly eye clean. Very attractive in person, and certainly worth adding to a collection, or to be placed into a custom piece of jewelry. Citrine may be well known among gem dealers and collectors, but the majority of the material on the market has been treated to enhance or even CREATE the yellow color. Typically these stones start out as natural Amethyst and are altered to create the yellow color. This stone is more than likely a heated gem that was once Amethyst. Do not miss out on this very good sized Citrine stone. Legitimately, this is stone retails for about $613.50 (roughly $25 per carat), and you will be hard pressed to find another like it in your life, especially for such a LOW $100 starting bid. Enjoy.
