Citrine Meaning and Art Deco

The beautiful yellow quartz, citrine, is related to amethyst, prasiolite, and smoky quartz. It is mainly found in Bolivia and Brazil.

In the 1930s, the demand for citrine soared after a batch of warm yellow rough stones was sent to Idar Oberstein to be cut. The astute jewelry lover noticed a trend of citrine in Art Deco jewelry. And even Cartier succumbed to this beautiful yellow color, incorporating citrine and diamonds into a magnificent Art Deco tiara in honor of the coronation of King George VI in 1937.
