What is the birthstone for November?

November has two official birthstones: citrine and topaz. Citrine is the more popular choice for November birthday jewelry because of its warm golden color, wide availability, and lower price point. Citrine is a quartz mineral (Mohs 7). At Erin Gallagher Jewelry, our November collection features citrine from $20.

Is citrine natural or heat-treated?

Most commercial citrine is produced by heat-treating amethyst or smoky quartz, which converts the purple or gray color to golden yellow. Natural citrine exists but is rare and commands a premium. Both natural and heat-treated citrine are genuine quartz (SiO2) with the same Mohs 7 hardness and physical properties.
