November Birthstones – Perfect Gems for the Perfect Holiday Gift - Part 2

Most people will never have the privilege to see top quality precious (golden, yellow-golden or imperial) topaz because most jewelers don’t carry it.  As a consequence, citrine became an “alternate” November birthstone and we don’t think a better alternative could have been chosen.

Citrine has the beautiful golden color of a top golden imperial topaz or it can be a reddish orange color. Citrine can also be a deeper brownish orange color called Madeira Citrine. Citrine is gemstone whose color really represents the beautiful colors of fall – rich and deep or sunny and bright. Think of the exquisite rich reds, golds and yellows of the fall colors of tree leaves but you don’t have to rake these and they don’t blow away in the wind.

Loose Citrine Gemstones

AfricaGems.com carries a wide range of citrine colors and we have an exceptional collection of citrines in all shapes. We even carry fantasy cuts of citrine. You might be asking yourself “what is a fantasy cut?” If you haven’t seen them, they are gemstones that are cut in unusual ways, giving the gemstone extra faceting or grooves and / or sometimes unusual shapes. A fantasy cut can really set a gemstone apart from the ordinary. Check out the “Octi Fleur” cut citrine show on the right or the fantasy chevron cut shown just below the Octi Fleur gemstone.
