I Gold Citrine Round 10mm Bead Strand for Jewelry Making
Shining with a golden glow, people have long treasured citrine as a gift from the sun. Citrine, a variety of transparent quartz, is named after the French citron, or lemon. Its color ranges from a juicy lemon yellow to a dark rich honey gold. In all of its glorious golden and yellow colors, it lights up your jewelry with a fresh squeeze of warm sunny shades.
Citrine is generally more affordable than amethyst, its quartz cousin. Like all quartz gems, citrine is relatively plentiful and is available in a wide range of sizes and shapes, including very large sizes. The Smithsonian has a 19,548-carat smoky citrine faceted by Mike Gray that’s the largest faceted gemstone by volume. That’s 8.7 pounds! A stylish cuff bracelet by Suzanne Belperron set with a 160-carat citrine sold for $120,000 at Fortuna auction house in 2018.
Most citrine on the market today is mined in Brazil. Bolivia has also become a leading producer: the country also produces a unique bicolor yellow and purple quartz called ametrine that is a combination of amethyst and citrine. Citrine is also mined in African countries including Tanzania, Namibia and Zambia.
