Sunny yellow citrine gets its name from the French word for lemon, ‘citron’. Citrine is a member of the quartz family and comes in shades of yellow, yellow-brown, orange, orange-brown, and reddish-brown.

While natural citrine is rare, it remains one of the most popular yellow gemstones. Wearing this stone is a lovely way to bring a little sunshine into your life.
