- Is the citrine durable enough for everyday wear?
- Citrine is a quartz, around 7 on the Mohs scale, so it resists scratches better than opal but less than diamond or sapphire. It can chip with hard knocks, so it suits occasional wear better than daily wear.
- Is this solid gold or plated?
- It is 18K yellow gold, so the color is the metal itself and will not wear off like plating. The small diamonds total about 0.09 carat.
- How does it compare with the diamond Chatelaine ring?
- The diamond version is more neutral and harder-wearing, while this citrine version is bolder and warmer in color. Both share the same cable band and 18K gold construction.
- What sizes are available?
- Listings show US sizes 5.5, 6.5 and 8. The wide cable band can feel snug, so try it on or size up if you are between sizes.
- Can it be resized?
- A jeweler can usually resize a gold ring, but the cable pattern and stone setting limit how much. Ask a jeweler before buying if you need a large size change.
- What comes in the box?
- It ships in David Yurman packaging with the ring and any certificates for the stones. Confirm the contents with the seller if you buy from a reseller.
