about

Founded in 2002 by Peruvian-born designers Mary, Michelle & Joanne Stone, this essential firm brings a fresh perspective to the art of making designer jewelry. The mother and daughters collaboration draws from two generations of expertise as well as design influences gleaned from extensive travel and education.

The trio choose the brand name, because they just liked the sound of the name Citrine, and the fact that it sounds beautiful in different languages. They later discovered that Citrine is the stone of prosperity, abundance, and wealth, which clears the mind and helps with relationships. It is also one of the only stones that never collects negative energy. Currently the bulk of the jewelry is handcrafted by an exceptional team of 25 silversmiths with over 35 years of experience and a talented team of women artisans, at their studios in Miami, and Peru- vivid and dynamic spaces reflecting the company’s approach and core values.

The jewelry ranges in price from $80-$400 dollars, with the most popular pieces being the Rain and Adonis earrings, large wire bangle and necklace, dream bangles, and turquoise multi-strand necklace. The collections are available at top department stores and high-end retailers throughout the United States, Europe and Asia, including Nordstrom, Calypso, Henri Bendel, Harvey Nichols, and Lane Crawford, to name a few.

In addition, 10% of all website purchases go to Bridges Across Borders a non-profit organization that focuses on clothing, feeding and providing shelter and education for Cambodian children. Other partnerships include Trees for the Future and Operation Green leaves in Haiti.
