| Citrine |
What a fortunate stone citrine is believed to be! Throughout history, various cultures have attributed citrine with bringing them success and wealth and protecting them from evil
thoughts and snake bites. All of those would come in handy to Scottish warriors, who used citrine in dagger handles during the seventeenth century.
Citrine owes its modern popularity to its pretty orange hues and affordability but also to Queen Victoria, who gave citrine a place of honor in traditional Highland brooches and kilt
pins to celebrate citrine mining resources in Scotland.
