Derived from the French word for “lemon” (citron), citrine is a bright and sunny yellow crystal which emanates positivity, creativity and light. From the Ancient Romans, who used this as an ornamental gem, to the Art Deco era, when it was popular in jewellery, citrine has maintained its popularity because of its joyous appearance and positive energy. This crystal is one of abundance and manifestation, attracting prosperity and wealth, and is often referred to as the Merchant’s or Success Stone. It is also popular with artists for stimulating creativity and imagination.
