November’s birthstone is stunning Citrine.
Citrine is the yellow variety of quartz, and its name comes form the Old French word for Lemon. Its warm colour is said to be a gift from the sun, making this golden gemstone the perfect option for brightening up a typically chilly autumnal month.
Citrine is considered by some to be a healing gemstone – calming, soothing and comforting, and has unsurprisingly been a popular decorative gemstone since ancient times.
