The Blue Rose Sterling Silver Kilt Pin is a beautiful, Victorian-era sterling silver pin with a simple yet elegant ring of blue lace agate surrounding a central citrine. The pin is unhallmarked, which is not unusual for family-made pins of this era. The pin measures just over 1.5 inches across. An excellent pin for a period-authentic Scottish kit.
With a color reminiscent of Scotland’s national pastime — whisky, the yellow-hued citrine holds a special place in Scottish jewelers’ hearts. Typically found in shades from a pale, watery yellow to a deep, Madeira orange, citrines are a close relative of the purple amethyst. Small deposits yield occasional stones in areas like Fife, Dundee, Fife and Galloway. A favorite gem of Victorian-era Scottish jewelers, citrines perfectly complement the reds and greens of banded agate.
Metaphysically, citrine acts to surround the wearer with an aura of success and good fortune, thus its nicknames of the “merchant’s stone” and the “money stone.” Its sunshine-like color brings warmth and joy to even the darkest of moods. Citrine is November’s birthstone.
