The little barrel charm isn't fixed; it slides freely along the fine gold chain. It's a small, kinetic detail you'll notice as you wear it. The weight is just enough to keep the warm-toned citrine stones sitting right at the centre of your collarbone.
A fine, gold-plated cable chain holds a single barrel-shaped charm. The charm has two polished gold rings on its edges, framing a central channel. Inside that channel, thirteen baguette-cut citrine stones are set side-by-side, their rectangular facets creating a line of warm, honey-coloured light. The entire piece is polished to a high shine, and the chain passes straight through the centre of the charm.
The core of this necklace is solid 925 sterling silver, which gives the charm a nice, solid feel without being too heavy. We plate it with a thick layer of 14K gold—which is 58.3% pure gold—for that rich, warm colour. Then we add a clear layer of E-coating on top. This is a protective seal, which means it helps guard the gold plating against scrapes and tarnish from daily wear. The thirteen stones are natural citrine, the birthstone for November.

Most pendants are flat and only look right from the front. This one is different. Because the charm is a complete barrel, it looks the same from every angle as it turns and moves. It's a small, three-dimensional detail that works well on its own or layered.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the gold plating on the Gemsign Citrine Charm Necklace wear off easily?
The 14K gold plating on your necklace is protected by a clear E-coating, which acts as a barrier against daily wear, sweat, and moisture. This significantly extends the life of the gold finish compared to standard plating. However, we still recommend removing it before contact with harsh chemicals.
Is it safe to shower or sleep while wearing the Gemsign Citrine Charm Necklace?
We recommend taking your necklace off before you shower or sleep. While the E-coating provides protection, prolonged exposure to water, soaps, and lotions can dull the citrine and wear down the gold plating over time. Sleeping with it on can also cause the chain to tangle or break.
How does the 16+2 inch chain on the Gemsign Citrine Charm Necklace fit on the neck?
The necklace is designed to sit high, close to the collarbone. The 16-inch base length is a standard short necklace length for most people. The extra 2-inch extender chain lets you adjust it for a slightly looser fit, up to 18 inches, which is helpful for layering or accommodating different necklines.
