ROMANCE, HISTORY & LORE

With its warm, golden glow, citrine has long been treasured as a gift from the sun. A variety of transparent quartz, citrine is named after “citron,” the French word for lemon. In ancient times, the gemstone was carried as a protection against snake venom and evil thoughts.

More recently, citrine was enormously popular in jewellery of the 1940s. Its sunny colour and dramatic proportions suited the streamlined style and bold gold of the era. It was often set with ruby, peridot, and aquamarine in colourful brooches, necklaces, and bracelets.
