November has two birthstones: Topaz and citrine
Topaz is highly durable, with colors ranging from gold to deep blue
From the Sanskrit tapas, meaning “fire,” topaz has been admired for centuries for its brilliance and variety of colors. While golden and honey-toned topaz are traditional for November, blue topaz, with its cool, ocean-like depth, has become a beloved modern favorite. Ancient cultures prized topaz as a symbol of strength and protection. Today, it’s mined in Brazil, Sri Lanka, Nigeria, and Pakistan, and its durability makes it perfect for rings, pendants, and earrings that combine beauty with everyday wearability.
Citrine is very popular, while still affordable
Named from the French citron for “lemon,” citrine radiates cheerful yellow to warm orange hues. Known as the “merchant’s stone” for its historic association with prosperity, citrine is found in Brazil, Madagascar, and Spain. Its uplifting color and affordability make it a popular choice for bold cocktail rings, pendants, and statement earrings. Citrine’s golden glow brings warmth and joy, making it an ideal gift for November birthdays.
