Citrine

Citrine is a golden variety of mineral quartz that has been treasured as a gift from the sun since antiquity.

Coloured by iron, it features a warm glow that ranges from lemony yellow to Madeira, a rich orange colour with red flashes.

Citrine is a durable stone with a Mohs scale value of 7 thus making it suitable for all jewellery applications.

In history, the stone was desired by many including the Ancient Greek, Ancient Egyptians and Ancient Romans who fashioned the stone into talismans, believing that citrine could promote serenity, prosperity and aid in the manifestation of desires.

Owing to its physical toughness and desirable colour, citrine remains a popular gemstone today.
