Citrine Necklace — Faceted Teardrop Pendant on Gold Chain, November Birthstone

A citrine teardrop necklace: a faceted golden drop pendant, 20 mm long and 12 mm wide (about 0.79 x 0.47 in), on a dainty gold chain. Citrine is the November birthstone, and its warm "sunshine" color is linked with confidence and abundance. A delicate size for everyday wear, layering, or a birthday gift.

Mineral Details: Collector's Note

• The name comes from the French word "citron," meaning lemon.

• Citrine shares the November birthstone spot with topaz and is also a traditional 13th anniversary gemstone.

Metaphysical Traditions

Many people associate citrine with the solar plexus chakra, confidence and a positive, sunny outlook. It's often called a "merchant's stone," which is why it's a popular abundance necklace or prosperity necklace for people starting a business or setting money goals. Some wear it as a confidence necklace for interviews and big days. These are traditional beliefs, not medical or scientific claims.

Questions People Ask

What is citrine good for?

What does a faceted stone mean?
