Citrine (natural color - untreated)

Item Description

Here we have a beautiful, natural / un-heated Citrine gem from Brazil with a beautiful "Round Brilliant" cut. This stone has a very light straw color and is nearly eye-clean in clarity. It's not very common to find natural Citrine gems from Brazil like this one, and this stone is gorgeous in person. Citrine may be well known among gem dealers and collectors, but the majority of the material on the market has been heated / treated to enhance or even CREATE the yellow color. Do not miss out on this eye-catching Citrine stone.
This stone is from the estate of former Phoenix area dealer Marvin Rockey. Rockey's Gems was a significant business in the early days of Arizona lapidary material, and he was a prominent dealer and buyer in the Arizona area of local lapidary and carving material from throughout the state, including Bisbee, the Ray Mine, Miami mines, and the Peridot finds on Indian lands in the 1950s-1970s. This stone was kept back from the retail stock for its quality and beauty, in a tray of special material, and was found in his estate (sold to us only recently).
