Citrine is divided into two types: amethyst that has been heated underground or artificially, or smoky quartz that has been heated. Most of what is available on the market seems to be amethyst-based. It is also called a symbol of the sun and is said to be a stone that conveys the message that it is more important to express yourself than to endure. 'K10 Gold' This material is known as 10-karat gold in Japan. This is an alloy of gold and other metals, with approximately 42% gold and 58% other metals such as silver and copper (18-karat gold is 75% gold and 25% other metals). While 18-karat gold is well-known in Japan, this alloy is characterized by its lighter, almost whiter color, making it very flattering to Japanese skin tones and suitable for casual wear. Due to the recent high price of gold, it has become popular in Japan as an alternative to 18-karat gold for gold jewelry, establishing its position as a casual gold option. Because it has a higher proportion of other metals compared to 18-karat gold, it is said to be more prone to tarnishing, but with occasional polishing and care, it shouldn't be a major concern. Regarding metal allergies, it's difficult to say definitively, but because of the higher proportion of other metals compared to 18-karat gold, it might potentially cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals, so please be aware of this.
