Citrine


Named from the French name for lemon,"citron," many citrines have a juicy lemon color.

In ancient times, citrine was carried as a protection against snake venom and evil thoughts.

Citrine is generally more inexpensive than amethyst and is also available in a wide range of calibrated sizes and shapes, including very large sizes. Since most citrine on the market started its life as amethyst which was heated to turn its color to gold, citrine jewelry, as well as amethyst jewelry, should be kept away from prolonged exposure to strong light or heat. With this precaution, citrine jewelry will last for many generations.
