Understanding This Piece
About Citrine
Citrine is yellow-to-orange quartz, the warm-toned sibling of amethyst. Most commercial citrine is heat-treated amethyst from Brazil; natural untreated citrine is rarer and commands higher prices. The color ranges from pale lemon to deep Madeira amber. Citrine scores 7 on Mohs (suitable for daily wear) and is the November birthstone and 13th-anniversary gem. It's one of the most accessible yellow gemstones in fine jewelry and pairs beautifully with both yellow and rose gold.
About 14K White Gold
14K white gold mixes 58.3% pure gold with palladium and silver, then receives a rhodium plating that gives it the bright cool-white finish prized for engagement rings and diamond bands. It looks similar to platinum at roughly half the cost. The rhodium plating wears with daily use and typically needs reapplication every 18–24 months — a service we provide free for life on every white gold piece sold at ATL Luxury Jewelers. Underneath the rhodium, 14K white gold has a faint warm undertone.
About Fashion Stud Earrings
Fashion studs go beyond the single-stone classic — incorporating clusters, halos, geometric shapes, animal motifs, sculptural metalwork, or mixed-stone combinations. They sit close to the earlobe like classic studs but bring more visual distinction and design language. Fashion studs are particularly popular for clients who want a daily-wear earring with more presence than a plain solitaire stud.
