Natural Burnt Orange & Brown Citrine Necklace in 14ct Gold Vermeil

This round citrine pendant has the most beautiful warm, autumn glow. Its colour shifts gently from lemon-drop yellow to soft golden honey, deepening into rich burnt orange tones that feel almost like glowing embers. There’s a natural warmth and depth to the stone - earthy, radiant, and quietly striking as it catches the light.

Now offered in 14ct gold vermeil, this piece feels both refined and effortless - a simple, elegant pendant with a soft, glowing presence.

About Vermeil

To offer both beauty and versatility within the Gia & Dawn collection, it is now available in 14ct gold vermeil - a considered option for those who love the look and feel of gold jewellery, while still seeking something elevated and refined.

Our vermeil is crafted with a generous 3 micron layer of 14ct gold over sterling silver, offering a rich, luminous finish with greater durability than standard gold plating. Because the base is sterling silver (not brass), it is suitable for sensitive skin. 14ct gold provides a warm, refined tone without the overly strong ‘copper’ and 'yellow brass' tone sometimes seen in higher 18ct or 24ct finishes. 14ct rose gold vermeil offers a softer, more refined blush tone — carefully balanced to avoid the overly copper or bright pink hues sometimes seen in higher rose gold finishes. We have carefully refined the gold blend to achieve a warm, elegant rose tone that feels timeless, feminine, and beautifully understated.

Vermeil is pronounced ‘ver-may’ — a French word describing a thick layer of gold over sterling silver.

We choose vermeil not as an alternative, but as an extension of the collection - allowing more women to connect with the pieces in a way that feels right for them.

Care Instructions

To maintain the beauty of your vermeil piece, we recommend avoiding contact with water, perfumes, lotions, and chemicals. Remove your jewellery before swimming, showering, or exercising.

To preserve its beauty, store your piece in the pouch or box it arrives in, in a cool, dry place away from air and moisture. When needed, gently polish with your G&D soft cloth, or any soft cloth you have.

With a little extra care, your vermeil jewellery will retain its warmth and shine, allowing you to enjoy it for years to come.

Our vermeil is crafted with a generous 3 micron layer of 14ct gold over sterling silver, creating a rich, durable finish that reflects a higher standard of vermeil.

True vermeil requires a sterling silver base and a minimum gold layer (typically around 2 microns), while pieces plated over brass or other metals are simply referred to as gold plated.

Please allow 2-3 weeks for your piece to arrive, as every Gia & Dawn design is individually handcrafted to order.
