![]() Very light or very dark citrines are valued slightly less but this can be a matter of personal taste.Īll in all, citrines are a very affordable gemstone with smaller gemstones ranging from $4 to $30 per carat and bigger citrines above 10 carats in weight beginning at $4 per carat and perhaps reaching $40 per carat for an exceptional example. Almost all citrine gemstones have excellent clarity and are available in a wide range of sizes and cuts so the deciding element with these gemstones is the color.ĭeeply colored citrines with saturated yellow or orange tones that have a pure and even color throughout the gemstone are the most valued. ![]() The most important factor in determining the price of citrine is color. The November Birthstone Price How expensive is Citrine? Completely colorless topaz can make a great and affordable substitute for diamonds. Modern treatments such as irradiation and coating can create stunning blue and pink colors which have made Topaz one of the most popular gemstones in the world. Nowadays the Russian mines seem to have been depleted and the only source is Brazil. Imperial Topaz is a particular color of topaz that was once only found in the Ural Mountains of Russia with pinkish-orange tones that is by far the most valuable of all Topazes. Topaz was once known as a yellowish or brownish gemstone although occasionally a clear or blue or pinkish stone would be provided by Mother Nature. However the yellow can range from a light lemony-yellow all the way to an almost earthy brown tone with some gorgeous orange colors in between. The name citrine is a clear clue as to the colors of this gemstone - yellow. Since just about all pale yellow gemstones were called Topaz no matter what they were in reality it makes sense to link both these autumnal colored stones to the month of November. Once upon a time, citrine and topaz (as well as many other pale yellow stones) were often mistaken for each other and were quite interchangeable as gemstones before scientists could properly identify them as two completely different minerals. There are two birthstones for November - Citrine and Topaz. November Birthstones What is the November Birthstone?
