Citrine and Diamond Ring in 14K

Citrine, the yellow variety of transparent quartz related to amethyst, is named after the French citron, or lemon. In ancient times, citrine was said to have the power to ward off snakebites. Even more powerfully, the ancients believed November’s birthstone also protected against the venom of evil words and thoughts. Shining with a golden glow, citrine jewelry feels like wearing sunlight. Citrine is the gem of the 13th anniversary.

With a warm sunny glow, 14K gold is the standard for fine jewelry, valued in every culture for its beauty as well as its long history as a store of wealth and a symbol of success. Gold doesn’t tarnish, rust, or corrode. Pure 24K gold is alloyed with other metals, including silver, copper, and zinc, to make it more durable. 14K yellow gold, 58.5% gold, is the most popular alloy in the United States because it holds gems securely and resists wear and scratching. Your gold jewelry will shine for generations.
