The world of gemstones has few yellow jewels. By nature, citrine stones range from lemon yellow to an almost reddish brown. November’s signature birthstone, citrine gems capture the warm glow of fallen leaves in autumn. We like to think of these briolette beauties as a little sunshine over your shoulder. The term “briolette” refers to the gemstone cut, which is characterized by triangular facets to form the shape of a teardrop. The tiny facets create light-catching magic, a quality that is certain to catapult these earrings to the top of your list of go-to accessories for any occasion.

Caring for your Citrine Jewelry
Citrine gemstones are “good” for everyday wear. Protect your citrine stone by avoiding direct sunlight and exposure to heat which may cause the color to fade. As with most jewelry, avoid contact with chemicals. To clean, gently scrub with a soft toothbrush and a solution of mild dish soap and warm water, or clean in an at-home ultrasonic unit. PenelopePoet.com suggests cleaning for your citrine gemstone jewelry in a bowl of water with a few drops of ordinary dish detergent. Using an old toothbrush or other soft brush, scrub gently behind the stone where dust and soap can collect. Then just rinse and pat dry with a soft cloth.
