Description

THIS IS YET ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL YELLOW CITRINE.  A TRUE WONDERMENT. THIS STONE IS NOT CANARY/DAFFODIL YELLOW, BUT MORE YELLOW/ORANGE. NOT NEAR A MADEIRA, BUT NOT A TRUE YELLOW EITHER.

 IN ACTUALITY, THE PROFESSIONAL DESCRIPTION OF THE HUE WOULD BE (AND I'M NOT KIDDIN' HERE)..... "ORANGEY YELLOW ".......YOU HAVE TO APPRECIATE TECHNICAL TERMS, YEA?  ( MY KID NEICE COULDA DONE THAT GOOD! )

THE CLARITY IS IF AND THE LUSTER IS ADAMANTINE.  

 

 

IT'S MORE LIVELY THAN A BAPTIST TENT REVIVAL!

 DELIVERED UNTO THEE AT LESS THAN 2.75@CARAT..... PRAISE DA' LAWD!
