Citrine and Pearl Necklace in 14k yellow gold

Warm golden citrine and softly luminous pearls — two of nature's most timelessly wearable gems — meet in this hand-strung necklace from the Petra Star Collection. Faceted citrine beads catch light with an almost honeyed intensity, their transparency amplifying the warm tones of the 14k yellow gold findings. Pearls, reclaimed and given new purpose, punctuate the strand with a quiet organic counterpoint — their subtle iridescence reading differently in candlelight than in morning sun.

The necklace closes with a 14k yellow gold spring ring clasp and finishes with a 6mm pearl drop at center, a small detail that keeps the eye moving and gives the piece gentle movement at the décolletage. At 16.5 inches, it sits at a classic choker-adjacent length — comfortable worn alone against the skin or layered over a lightweight chain.

The citrine in this piece was sourced directly at the Tucson Gem Show, where Petra Star selects stones in person for color consistency and quality. The pearls are reclaimed — part of an ongoing commitment to giving beautiful materials a second life rather than consigning them to obscurity.
