What is citrine good for?

In traditional crystal practice, citrine is most commonly worked with for abundance, wealth, and success. It's not medicine, and no stone will fix anything on its own. Think of it as a physical cue for a practice you're already building. The stone holds the attention, the practice does the work.

Where does your citrine come from?

Every piece of citrine in the catalog has its country of origin noted on the product page. Where we can name the region or the mine, we do. If we can't verify it, we say so rather than guess.

How do I know your citrine is real and not dyed?

Every piece of citrine we sell is hand-graded and checked against known treatment patterns before it's listed. If a stone has been dyed, heated, irradiated, or coated in any way, we disclose it on the product page. Our sourcing goes through the Beyond Ethical supply network, which means we know who handled the rough before us. No mystery lots, no filler, no dyed stones passed off as natural.

How do I cleanse and care for citrine?

Most people cleanse citrine with sound (a bell or a singing bowl), smoke (sage, palo santo, cedar), moonlight overnight, or by placing it on a piece of selenite. Citrine is hard enough at 7 on the Mohs scale to handle most cleansing methods. How often is up to you. A weekly reset is a common rhythm, but there's no rule. The practice matters more than the schedule.

Warmth and intention in a stone built by heat.

Quartz familyBrazil, Madagascar & RussiaTreatment: Very common (heat)

Citrine is the yellow-to-orange variety of quartz, colored by trace iron. The critical piece: natural citrine is genuinely rare. The vast majority of "citrine" sold at ordinary retail prices is heat-treated amethyst from Brazil, which turns yellow or orange above roughly 470 degrees Celsius. True unheated citrine exists but commands a premium and comes with provenance documentation. We'll tell you honestly what each piece is.
