Citrine and Topaz – the two birthstones of November – are
often confused with one another because of their yellowish-brown appearances.
However, the visual potential of Topaz far surpasses the limited yellow and
brown hues of citrine. Coming in a rainbow of color – the most popular, blue –
topaz is one of those hardy stones that has endless potential when it comes to
jewelry design.

Topaz comes in shades of pink, light green, blue, red,
yellow, and even black. For those with
November birthdays, this wide array of colors is helpful when choosing a piece
of jewelry that can represent the rich, warm colors of fall. This is also true
of citrine.
Though it is more limited in ranges of color, this stone is
also the perfect gift-giving stone for those with November birthdays. It is a
rather hardy and inexpensive stone with the most sought-after colors ranging
from clear, radiant yellowish to brownish-red; again, perfect colors for fall.

Though they can be similar in appearance, topaz is a much
higher-quality and valued stone.
