One day the chief of the local Ovahimba tribe arrived at their camp, unhappy with how the group were making holes in their mountain without permission. In March 1994, gemmologist Alan Roup and his team went to the Namibian desert in search of mandarin orange Garnets, however three months into their expedition they were still having no luck. However Garnets also naturally occur in shades of mandarin orange, and are definitive by their electric orange glow. Sources of Citrine have stretched far across the globe, with the gemstone having been discovered in Brazil, Bolivia, many countries in Africa and even parts of the Soviet Union.Īs Sapphires are synonymous of the colour blue, Garnets traditionally conjure imagery of a deep red stone. Often referred to as the ‘stone of the mind,’ ancient cultures believed that placing a Citrine on the forehead of an elder would increase his psychic power and was used by healers to boost self-esteem. Taking on a lighter, golden shade of orange, the Citrine is another joyful stone with a bright energy which is said to promote good luck in ‘unexpected ways’ – it was considered a positive superstition to place a Citrine in the draw of a till to bring good fortune to your sales. Today, many Padparadschas are heat treated to enhance the natural colouring of the stone – though most discovered are less than two carats in weight, there’s a stone from Sri Lanka on display at the American Museum of Natural History in New York that weighs an incredible one hundred carats! Orange sapphires are said to be a gentle stone with many positive attributes which will promote calmness and trust. The name derives from the Sinhalese word ‘padma radschen’ which means lotus blossom, because the colour is similar to that of the centre of that flower. The incredibly rare, orange-pink variety of Sapphires, are also known as Padparadschas. Though many people automatically associate the gemstone Sapphire with the colour blue, the gem occurs naturally in a whole variety of shades, including orange. The shade is evocative of energy, happiness, joy, enthusiasm and general positivity – so why not embrace the colour Orange through accents in your jewellery – it’s guaranteed to lift your spirits! It can be found all around us, from our Pumpkin Spiced Lattes to the spectrum of hues on the turning autumn leaves, and when it comes to jewellery, there are a whole variety of gemstones which naturally occur in the colour which you may not have even known about.Īlthough orange gemstones aren’t as conventionally popular in jewellery designs, they can make a truly stunning addition to your jewellery box. Yet the shade returns year after year, demanding to be worn with confidence and panache.
