This gem is as stunning as it looks and then some more!
This intensity and quality of Citrine is not easy to source and will bring radiant sunshine to the heart of any piece of jewelry. It just cannot fail to draw the eye. (and the heart!)
Concave gems are very special and can improove the brilliance of gems by up to 100%. Instead of the pavillion (back facets) being joined with the conventional flat surface, the facet edges are joined with a groove. You can see this in the bottom picture.
This allows more light to refract and reflect within the gem, bringing a dazzling intensity of light to dance across the gem as it is turned.
Concave gems command higher prices than normally faceted gems for a number of reasons.
It takes longer for the cutter to facet.
Because of the grooves, the original rough gem material produces a smaller final carat weight than a normally faceted gem.
Concave gems are in high demand and are comparatively in short supply. Supply versus demand sets the value/selling price of gems.
You will be deligted with this good size, glorious golden concave cut citrine!
