Weight:(11.60)CT

Stone:(Citrine)

Bi-color citrine is a unique and beautiful variation of citrine, a type of quartz. Unlike standard citrine, which is typically a golden yellow to deep amber hue, bi-color citrine displays two distinct colors in the same stone. These color combinations can range from a blend of yellow and orange to yellow and brown, or even yellow and red, depending on the trace minerals present during the crystal's formation.

### Key Features of Bi-color Citrine:

- Color: The two colors in a bi-color citrine are typically sharply delineated, although the transition between the two can sometimes be more subtle. The stone might have a yellowish zone that gradually blends into an orange or brownish section.

- Origin: Bi-color citrine can be found in several parts of the world, including Brazil, Madagascar, and parts of Africa. However, bi-color stones are not as common as solid-color citrine.

- Clarity and Transparency: Like other citrines, bi-color citrines are generally transparent and have good clarity, though inclusions can occasionally be present.

### Uses in Jewelry:

Bi-color citrine is often used in a variety of jewelry designs, including:

- Rings: As center stones in statement rings or as accent stones in designs featuring other gemstones.

- Necklaces: In pendants, where the unique color blending can be showcased.

- Earrings: As part of drop or stud earrings, highlighting the stone’s unique visual effect.

### Gemstone Care:

Citrine is relatively durable (7 on the Mohs scale), making it suitable for everyday wear. However, as with any gemstone, bi-color citrine should be protected from harsh chemicals and extreme temperatures.

The distinctive appearance of bi-color citrine makes it a standout piece for those seeking something a little different from traditional gemstones. Would you like to know more about how to care for or select a bi-color citrine stone for a specific jewelry design?
