From the French for 'a thousand grains', the tiny beads of a milgrain accent can add complexity and detail to a Citrine design, as well as create a vintage or antique look. November's birthstone, citrine sparkles like honey. Carry the warmth and glow of a golden sunset with you by wearing a beautiful citrine ring. Once considered more valuable than diamonds, a peridot ring is a must have. This "gem of the sun" is the birthstone of August and is a beautiful match for the lush green tapestry of late summer.
