Item Description

The majority of Brazilian Citrine that I've seen on the market has been heated and has a very artificial appearance. The material that is marketed as "Medeira" Citrine is heavily cooked to create the color. This stone is a good example of said material. It is a very rich fiery orange color face up, like most "Medeiras", but this one has some colorless zoning that you can see from through the pavillion. The stone is virtually eye clean with a lovely "Emerald" cut.
