What is Citrine?
Citrine is yellow to orange-brown quartz. Natural citrine is fairly rare and usually pale champagne in colour; the strong golden-orange citrine seen in clusters and geodes is amethyst that has been heat-treated, which changes the iron colour centres from purple to yellow.
Both natural and heated citrine are popular. We always state which one you are buying.

Care & cleaning
