The easy availability

Ancient people used citron
to keep themselves away from evil thoughts and also as a protection
against the venom of snake. The Madeira citrine deriving its name from
the similarity of its dark orange colour with that of the wine is considered
the most precious colour for use in a citrine and diamond ring. However
the shades of bright lemon because it matches better with light colours
are more preferred by modern day people for their citrine and diamond
ring. The calibrated sizes of citrine used in citrine and diamond ring
vary from small to large and the shapes are wide ranging. Citrine is
cheaper also compared to other gemstones like amethyst. Brazil is the
main source of citrine mining. Because of similarity in colour, the
term citrine is used sometimes wrongly to indicate topaz quartz. While
similarity with colour of topaz may be the reason, citrine and diamond
ring is also used by many as the birthstone for November like topaz.
There is a note of caution
for people falling for the charm of citrine and diamond ring. Majority
of the citrine gemstones seen in the market have undergone heat treatment
for giving them the colour like gold. This is done for amethyst also.
That is why a citrine and diamond ring should be protected from exposure
to strong light and heat for considerable length of time so as to save
its colour from losing strength. If protected in this way and used carefully,
a citrine and diamond ring can last for a long time. The sunshine beauty
of this gemstone glittering in colour and light accented with diamonds
carry the citrine and diamond ring to a great height of eye catching
appeal. The golden hue in citrine is bright enough to light up the life
of the wearer and make the ring a treasured possession worth going for.
