Collection: Citrine

Citrine is the pale yellow to golden orange variety of quartz. Natural citrine is rare and usually quite pale, so most citrine on the market is amethyst that has been heated until it turns golden.

Varieties and Trade Names

Deep orange heated material is sometimes sold as Madeira citrine. Lemon quartz is a bright yellow quartz usually produced by treating clear quartz. Ametrine, part amethyst and part citrine, is covered under Amethyst.
