Citrine gemstone pendant 925 silver 15x23 mm

Citrine – its name is derived from the French "citron" (lemon) and aptly describes its characteristic yellow to orange-yellow coloring. Citrine is a yellow variety of quartz and is formed by iron inclusions in the crystal lattice. Natural citrine is rare – many citrines available on the market are heated amethyst or smoky quartz that acquires its golden-yellow color through heat treatment. This pendant is set in 925 sterling silver.
