Collection: Golden Topaz and Citrine: November's Birthstones

November babies are lucky enough to have two incredible birthstones, Topaz and Citrine. The yellow-gold color that is associated with November is displayed in both of the gemstones, and this is why November ends up with not one, but two birthstones! The two gemstones create the perfect combination, as topaz brings forth strength while citrine brings forth healing. With it’s glow and fiery intensity, topaz is believed to be associated with the Egyptian Sun God Ra.

 Although the two gemstones are associated with the same month, the two are virtually opposite in meaning. Unlike the intense topaz gemstone, citrine is known primarily for it’s amazing healing qualities. It is even referred to as the “Healing Quartz”. The two gemstones also have an incredibly similar appearance, but they are quite different in composition. Just because they look the same certainly does not mean they are the same! The two stones were assigned as the November birthstones for a reason. The qualities of the two match up so well, and leave November babies with some of the best characteristics possible.

FYI... if it's your 23rd anniversary, you are suppose to give the gift of an Imperial (Precious) Topaz. The name “imperial topaz” simply refers to topaz that can range from yellow to a deep golden color often likened to cognac. So while women can have their jewelry, perhaps men can be given a fine bottle of cognac to toast the 23rd anniversary.

As for Citrine, create a custom piece using this special gem for your 13th Anniversary.
