Beautiful yellow citrines with their mellow and yet warm tone that seems to have captured the last glow of autumn sparkle with the light of the sun. Like golden Rhine wine or sparkling Madeira, heavy and sweet, citrine jewelery shimmers and brings a hint of sunshine. It's no wonder that Citrine is one of only two gems on the entire planet that will not hold negative energy.
