Buy untreated citrine – genuine natural unique pieces at Crystal Paradise
Those who want to buy untreated citrine are looking for one of the rarest and most coveted quartzes of all: a stone whose warm golden tones have been created exclusively through natural geological processes – without heating, without dyeing, without human intervention. At Crystal Paradise, you will find only genuine, untreated citrines of tested quality, carefully hand-picked by our experienced team in the showroom in Feldkirchen near Munich.
Untreated citrine is a natural variety of the quartz mineral (SiO₂), whose characteristic yellow coloring is caused by traces of iron in the crystal lattice. Unlike artificially heated amethyst – which is often mistakenly sold as citrine in trade – genuine natural citrine exhibits a subtly warm color palette from pale lemon yellow to delicate honey yellow to deep cognac brown. Our guide Identifying Real Citrine explains more about how to distinguish real citrine from treated stones.

Origin and quality: Where does real natural citrine come from?
The most important worldwide deposits for untreated citrine are Brazil (especially the state of Minas Gerais), Russia (Ural region) and Zambia. Each origin brings its own color characteristics and crystal structure. Brazilian natural citrine convinces with velvety golden tones and is particularly valuable due to its rarity – you can read why this is so in our blog article Buying natural citrine from Brazil – why genuine natural citrine from Minas Gerais is so rare, valuable, and unadulterated.

According to scientific definition, citrine is a silicon dioxide mineral with a Mohs hardness of 7 – robust enough for daily use, sufficiently transparent for impressive light refraction. Further information on the mineralogy of citrine is available on the Wikipedia page on Citrine.
In gemstone healing, citrine is traditionally considered the "stone of the sun" and, according to spiritual tradition, is associated with joy of life, drive, and inner clarity. Our blog article Citrine: Effect, Meaning & Application deepens this perspective.
