Citrine is a variety of transparent to translucent quartz that ranges in color from a light yellow through orange to amber brown.
Our tumble-polished citrine has a transparent to translucent yellow to golden color that sometimes blends with a milky white translucent quartz.
Please Note: We suspect that these stones might have been treated to give them an improved color.
They are sold
in 4 ounce (113 gram), 8 ounce (226 gram) and one pound (453 gram) bags. The picture above shows the contents representative of a 4 ounce (113 gram) bag. Your stones will be
similar in size, shape and color to the stones pictured above. They are perfect for a variety of jewelry and craft projects - or simply to admire.
Citrine is a very popular semiprecious stone. Transparent citrine is often faceted and used in
rings, earrings and pendants. Less transparent to translucent stones are often cut into
cabochons, beads or tumble-polished like the stones we sell here. Citrine is designated as a November birthstone
and is also traditional gift on a 13-year anniversary. Much of the gemstone-quality citrine
produced today is from Uruguay, Brazil, Spain and Madagascar.
Warning: Polished stones can be a choking hazard for small children. |
