Citrine comes in a range of yellow hues, from pale yellow to brownish orange. The gemstone is actually a variety of quartz and takes its name from the citron fruit because of its sun-kissed, lemon-inspired shades!

As early as 1385, the name “citrine” was used to refer to these yellow gemstones. People then believed that citrine could calm tempers and manifest prosperity. To leverage these powers, Egyptians used citrine to create talismans, the Greeks carved images into them, and Roman priests adorned their fingers with them.

It was discovered in the mid-18th century that when heated, amethyst and smoky quartzes changed colors and produced golden citrine hues. The gems then became more affordable. Today, citrine remains one of the most affordable and frequently purchased yellow gemstones.
