https://youtube.com/shorts/WQiz0yitbSI?feature=share3This one is perfect in every way, imho.
Incidentally, spinels are not treated.
Too rich for my blood. I'll never own one.
But I like looking.

This doesn't do a lot for me other than the stone.
Citrine is on my top 10 list.
I believe it's chemically related to aquamarine.
I used to walk by this gallery when I lived in the French Quarter. I remember the windows being filled with large yellow radiant cut diamond rings and authentic Fabergé pieces the prices of which seem ridiculously low looking back on it.
