Product Description for 8x6mm Oval Citrine Matched Pair-C2V152Citrine gets its color from traces of iron and its name from its citrus color, though it is also found in medium yellow and golden to reddish brown. Most citrine is heat treated to enhance the color, and as quartz, it ranks a 7 on the Mohs' hardness scale, making it a great choice for durable jewelry. Citrine is found mostly in Brazil, but it is also mined in Madagascar, Uruguay, Bolivia, Mexico, and Spain. Citrine sometimes serves as an alternative to topaz for the November birthstone.

"The stone match perfectly, for the price one could not expect more. Actually, I would have paid more. I gave them to my 8 year old grand daughter and also bought her silver casting, she is going to make earrings and give them to her mother for a birthday present."

Fast Facts
| Due to its bright earth tones, Citrine is a popular stone for jewelry designers. |
| Gloria Swanson and other great old film stars of Hollywood brought citrine to the public awareness in the late 30???s. She wore her own flamboyant citrine jewelry in her films. At that time, it was so unavailable to the general population, that it cost a fortune. Today we can have the same beautiful stones very affordably. |
 Citrine enjoys a reputation for being usually clean--naturally not included.
