Yellow-orange is the light of late afternoon on a spring or summer day when the sun is dropping and quality of light mellows and softens. It's a time of quietness and reflection near the end of the day before the business of evening. Gemstones in this color group include citrine, amber, some topaz, multicolor moonstone, and peach calcite.

f u n   f a c t s : 

Most citrine gemstones are yellow-orange, and the same is true of amber. Champagne quartz can be a lovely mellow yellow-orange, as well as imperial topaz. Yellow aventurine, golden jade, yellow calcite and aragonite are not as common but warm yellow-hued stones. Gold can be found in this color group as well as yellow.

Swarovski crystal colors "citrine" and "topaz" have been available for years, and "sunflower" is a welcome new addition. "Crystal golden shadow" has a touch more tan but it is a lovely golden color.

Naturally colored pearls are more cream than golden, and yellow-orange colored pearls don't have much visual appeal.
