Birthstone for November: Citrine & Topaz

Geburtsstein November: Citrin & Topas

November has two birthstones: citrine and topaz. Both represent light, confidence, and clarity – exactly what one often needs during this time of year.

I work with citrine at sani whoo because I find the stone elegant. Its color is reminiscent of warm sunlight and instantly creates a cheerful atmosphere. In my opinion, yellow is an underrated color. I even once designed a piece of jewelry with citrine for a member of the Royal Family, back when I was still using my previous label. The stone simply has a special radiance and can be combined beautifully – whether worn alone or mixed with other pieces.

Citrine – Joy of life and strength

Citrine is associated with optimism and self-confidence.
It is considered a stone of joy and is said to help focus attention on the positive.

My citrine bracelet beautifully showcases its warm, golden color. Handmade, simple, and with a natural radiance.

Topaz – Clarity and lightness

Topaz is the second birthstone of the month. It traditionally represents truth and clarity and is said to help organize thoughts and walk one's path with ease.

Especially the light blue topaz is associated with inner peace. It appears cool and clear – like a ray of light on a cold winter morning.

Why these stones are special

Citrine and topaz both contain light – one warm and sunny, the other clear and calm. Together they reflect the mood of November: gentle, bright, and still.

I make all my jewelry myself, in small batches. Not to follow trends, but to make connection visible.

Gift idea for those born in November

A piece of jewelry with citrine is a quiet, warm gift. For someone born in November – or simply to bring a little sunshine into their day.
