The Golden Glow of Devam
BIRTHSTONE OF THE MONTH
Orange Citrine
Orange citrine catches the eye with the warmth of late-afternoon sunlight. Its color can range from soft amber to a deep, fiery orange, with golden flashes that come into view as the stone moves. In a pendant, that play of light draws attention to the cut. In a ring, even a small stone can bring a welcome touch of color.
Citrine has long been associated with abundance and prosperity. Some wear it as a reminder to approach a new beginning with confidence or to make more room for creativity and joy. Those associations give the stone a personal meaning when it is chosen to mark a milestone.
Set in yellow gold, orange citrine takes on a softer, honeyed warmth. Against white gold, its orange tones stand out more sharply. A pair of citrine earrings can brighten a simple daytime outfit, while a larger stone makes a striking centerpiece for an evening look.
BIRTHSTONE OF THE MONTH THE MAISON’S PICK
Orange Citrine Pebbles of the Furnace
Pebbles of the Furnace draws its warmth from the colors of fire and earth. Handcrafted in yellow gold, the necklace brings burnt orange diamonds together with brilliant white diamonds in an arrangement that recalls embers glowing among stones. The gold echoes the warmer tones, while the white diamonds catch the light in bright flashes.
The placement of the diamonds gives the necklace its organic character. The eye moves from the deep orange of one stone to the brightness of the next, picking up small changes in color and texture along the way. As the necklace moves with the wearer, different stones come into the light, giving the composition a shifting glow.
The name captures the two qualities that give the piece its character. “Pebbles” suggests the quiet irregularity of stones found in nature, while “furnace” evokes the heat and color of a fire that still glows as it settles into embers.
Birthstone of the Month and The Maison’s Pick are provided by the House of Devam.
About House of Devam
Six generations ago in India, the Jhaveri family founded Devam to turn exceptional gemstones into original jewelry. The family name, derived from the Arabic word Javahari, means jeweler. Over the years, the Jhaveris have crafted one-of-a-kind pieces for noble families across the Indian subcontinent.
The search for fine stones has taken the family to Kashmir for sapphires and to the gem markets of the Middle East for prized Basra pearls. Today, Devam handpicks its gemstones and looks for new finds at international jewelry shows in Hong Kong, Italy, and Las Vegas. For members of the Jhaveri family, learning the trade began in childhood, sorting diamonds and pearls alongside their fathers.
Devam’s jewelry is made by hand by artisans whose families have practiced the craft for generations. Each design is created around the stones selected for it and made only once. A piece commissioned for a special occasion can become a family heirloom, carrying the story of the person it was made for.
With offices in India, Antwerp, and South Florida, Devam creates custom gold and gemstone jewelry for clients in more than 40 countries.
We are proud to announce our collaboration with Houbigant Paris, one of the world’s oldest perfume houses. Houbigant has been creating fragrances since 1775, carrying forward a centuries-old tradition of French perfumery. We now offer its perfume collection at Devam, bringing fine fragrance and handcrafted jewelry together.
