Citrine Princess


These faceted ovals of Citrine are so clear and luminous that I decided to thread them on a very simple gold-coloured wire in order to let them grab all the attention. They are interspaced with textured Gold-Vermeil beads and the fastening is a Gold-Vermeil shepherd's hook clasp.

This is a 'princess length' necklace, which rests neatly on the collarbone at the front.

Price: £76.

Honey Bee Mine


Citrine. Lovely pale champagne to molten gold hues, and excellent as a financial charm too, if you believe in gemstones as talismans...

This bracelet features large faceted rondelles of honey-golden Citrine finished off with a Sterling Silver t-bar clasp.

Price: £22.

Note: Citrine is a hardwearing gemstone, but it will fade if left in bright sunshine for a longer period of time. So don't leave it on your bedroom window ledge for example, tuck it away when you're not wearing it.

Petite Hoop Earrings






I am rather fond of hammered hoop earrings, but I find the traditional 'créoles' don't necessarily suit a rounded jawline, so I like to use brushed & hammered circles as part of a pendant design instead. This weekend I started off the new year by making several pairs of mini hoop earrings in gold and silver adorned with garnet, lapis and citrine. I think they will be just perfect for pepping up work outfits in gloomy January.

Citrine Stones



This is a very light design, with faceted briolettes of soft golden Citrine suspended from hand-forged links of 14k gold-fill and oxidised sterling wire, embellished with tiny rondelles of black Onyx and palest lavender Ametrine. These are finished off with 14k gold-fill lever-back hooks.
