About This Item
Citrine Tumbled Stone – Yellow Quartz includes one randomly selected polished stone sold as citrine for collecting, carrying, display, meditation, or symbolic ritual use. Citrine is the yellow-to-orange variety of quartz, but natural citrine is uncommon and most material in the gem market is produced by heating amethyst; this listing has no item-level report confirming natural color, treatment, laboratory-grown origin, dimensions, weight, mine locality, or origin. Pale-yellow to golden, yellow-orange, or brownish-orange color, zoning, clarity, inclusions, shape, polish, size, pits, chips, fractures, and surface features vary.
