Citrine Quartz

100% Natural Citrin Cluster  from the Swiss Alps

This beautiful cluster of yellow quartz is from the Thusis area of the Swiss Alps. The yellow is not from the same impurity that causes citrine (most of the citrine you see is “cooked” to produce its color, in fact), but from inclusions of hematite in this case. It gives the gemmy quartz crystals a very distinctive look for Swiss quartz, and these are rare. The crystals are complete, sharp and free of damage.

Citrine is said to be carrying the energy of the sun. Its’ vital energy is believed to be associated with wealth and is often referred to as the success stone. Citrine is known to reduce sensitivity to criticism and inspires creativity and self-expression. The meaning of the stone is also linked to boosting joy and optimism, which gives you the motivation you need to accomplish your goals.
