CRYSTALS TUMBLED AND ROUGH STONES AND OTHER TREASURES
Citrine derives it's name from the French word citrine which means lemon. Citrine is, like amethyst, is quartz that has small amounts of iron included in the crystal. The amount of heat occurring during the formation of the crystal determines the color. Much of the citrine available has been irradiated to either to change the colour from amethyst to citrine or to intensify the colour. Natural citrine is comparatively rare and is generally a paler color. All the citrine on this page is natural and comes from Zambia. Often the bright orange citrine available is heat treated amethyst. Natural citrine which has gained it's color in the earth is comparatively rare.

This a natural
citrine cluster from the Karibib region of Namibia. Its unusual to
find citrine in the area and natural citrine clusters are even more
uncommon. The cluster is made up of numerous flawless crystals with a
great clarity. The energy is lovely and the piece just feels great in
ones hand. My favorite part of the piece though is the many double
terminated crystals. They appear like little Herkimer diamonds all stuck
together, the color is just exquisite. |

Another of the
delightful pineapple citrines from Malawi, a few more showed up at a
recent rock show. So where as it appeared they would vanish they seem to
be trickling down slowly. That or dealers who bulk bought are finally
releasing the last, time will tell. |

| Another stunner a
large soft yellow point encased by a ring of small crystals, many with
out damage. Again there is definably a darker yellow color in person but
the photos display the piece well. These citrines have a wonderful
bubbly energy and such unusual formations, I always enjoy finding a few
more. Size: 2 ½ x 1 x ½ inches Price: $35.00 (Plus shipping and handling)  |

I am still not sure if this is a
cluster or a point, three points atop and a myriad of layered points
below. The color is a deep rich yellow even gold in some points.
Unfortunately these points are chipped, how ever the color is top draw.
The crystals have great clarity to compliment the excellent color its a
really winning combination. |
