| Era Information | Vintage jewelry refers to jewelry that was produced a certain number of years ago, typically at least 20 years or more. It is often characterized by its unique style, craftsmanship, and use of materials that are no longer in production or are hard to find. Vintage jewelry can be made from a wide variety of materials, including gold, silver, platinum, and diamonds, as well as less precious materials such as costume jewelry or Bakelite. It can be influenced by a variety of styles and movements, including Art Deco, Art Nouveau, and Retro. One of the key features of vintage jewelry is its uniqueness and individuality. Unlike modern jewelry, which is often mass-produced, vintage jewelry is often one-of-a-kind or part of a limited production run. This makes it highly collectible and sought after by collectors and vintage enthusiasts. Vintage jewelry is often associated with a sense of history and nostalgia, and it can be a way to connect with the past and appreciate the craftsmanship and artistry of earlier periods. It is highly collectible and can be found at vintage stores, antique shops, and online marketplaces. |

| Material Information | Citrine Citrine is a variety of quartz that is yellow to golden in color and is colored by trace elements of iron. It is named after the French word "citron," which means "lemon." The color of citrine closely resembles the color of yellow topaz, which is more expensive, and as a result, citrine is sometimes marketed under various misnomers such as "Madeira topaz," "Bahia topaz," and "topaz quartz." Today, citrine is often actually amethyst that has been heated to a temperature of approximately 900 degrees Fahrenheit (around 450 to 480 degrees Celsius). This process creates a stable golden to yellow color that can be restored to its original color upon irradiation. Citrine is the second most coveted variety of quartz after amethyst. It is prized for its beautiful yellow to golden color and is often used in a variety of different types of jewelry, including rings, earrings, pendants, and bracelets. It is also believed to have various healing properties and is sometimes used in traditional medicine. It is thought to have calming and balancing effects, and is sometimes used in meditation practices. 18k 18k gold is a type of gold alloy that is commonly used in jewelry making. It is made up of 75% gold and 25% other metals, such as copper, silver, or palladium. The addition of other metals helps to increase the durability and strength of the gold, making it more suitable for use in jewelry. 18k gold is softer and more prone to scratching than higher karat golds, such as 22k or 24k, but it is still a popular choice for jewelry because of its warm, yellow color and good resistance to tarnishing. It is also less expensive than higher karat golds due to the smaller amount of gold used in the alloy. 18k gold is a popular choice for engagement rings, wedding bands, and other fine jewelry items. |
