Citrine Gold Plated Heart Pendant

Citrine is a golden-yellow variety of quartz, traditionally linked to joy, abundance, and optimism. This heart-shaped citrine pendant is edged in gold plating, pairing a warm golden-honey stone with a soft, romantic silhouette. It hangs ready to add to your own chain, whether you're layering it or wearing it alone.

Quick facts

Meaning & history

Citrine is the bright, sunny stone of joy, optimism, and abundance in crystal tradition, often called the merchant's stone for its ties to good fortune. A heart cut layers in its own long-standing symbolism of love and warmth, making this pendant a favorite for gifting or wearing as a daily reminder of both. As with all our citrine, this stone's golden color typically comes from heat treatment of amethyst or smoky quartz, a standard, long-disclosed practice in the crystal trade.

How to wear it

Add this pendant to a chain you already own, or pair it with a simple gold chain for a cohesive look. Many people wear it as an everyday piece, a small reminder to stay open to joy and abundance, or give it as a gift for a birthday, graduation, or just because.

Care & cleansing

Remove the pendant before showering, swimming, or applying lotion or perfume, since water and chemicals can wear down gold plating over time. Citrine itself is quartz (Mohs 7) and can handle a brief rinse if needed, but skip prolonged soaking or salt, which can dull both the stone and the plated frame. Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after wear and store away from other jewelry to avoid scratches.
