Happy Birthday November! This month's birthstone is traditionally citrine and alternately, the yellow/orange topaz.
Throughout time, both gems have been thought to soothe tempers and bring warmth and good fortune to the wearer. Citrine is a member of the quartz family and It is also known as the "healing quartz". Derived from the Latin and French word "citron" meaning lemon or yellow. The gem ranges from a pale yellow to a warm red/orange hue.
The Ancient Greeks used citrine as a carving medium, fashioning small animals, figures, and abstract shapes. The Roman Empire pontiff's wore massive rings adorned with Amethyst and Citrine. The gem was also extremely popular in Victorian times. In fact, Queen Victoria included citrine in her world famous royal jewelry collection. Hollywood starlets Greta Garbo and Joan Crawford were also admirers of sunny citrine and have been spotted on the red carpets adorn with this November jewel.
