Birthstone for the month of November – Citrine

Citrine - Birthstone for November

Those born in November are lucky enough to have two stunning gems as their birthstones. One being the Topaz, which comes in a variety of colours, and the other like a ray of sunshine is the Citrine.

 

Citrine is the yellow variety of quartz, and its name comes from 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 autumn month. Citrine has been a popular decorative gemstone since ancient times. Bearing such a resemblance to yellow topaz, it’s not surprising the two November birthstones share a history of mistaken identity and both are thought to carry similar powers.
