Citrine’s name is derived from the French word citron, meaning lemon due to its colour. Citrine has long been remarked upon for its subtle, honeyed beauty. Though the stone has an abundant history of being used in jewellery by ancient civilizations, Citrine is actually very rare today. Most Citrine seen on the market is actually Amethyst that has been heat treated to achieve a yellow hue.
Real Citrine was used in the jewellery of Greek and Roman civilizations dating back to the 1st century A.D. Citrine was also featured in the flamingo brooch of the Duchess of Windsor and in the Bulgari Cerchi earrings.
