Buy Citrine from Brazil (not heat-treated) (395g) – authentic nature, unaltered energy

This Citrine from Brazil (not heat-treated) is an authentic natural mineral in its purest form: no heated amethyst, no artificially optimized hue – but genuine, naturally grown sun stone straight from Brazilian soil. Weighing 395g, this piece brings an impressive presence that delights collectors and spiritually-minded people alike. Natural citrine from Brazil is one of the rarer minerals on the market, since the untreated variety preserves its original honey to golden yellow hue without thermal alteration – formed by natural iron inclusions in the quartz lattice over millions of years.

Care and cleaning of your Brazilian citrine

Natural citrines are low-maintenance and rewarding companions in everyday life. The following simple tips will help you preserve the quality of your stone in the long term:

1. Occasionally clean the stone with clear, lukewarm water and a soft cloth.
2. Avoid prolonged, direct sunlight – although citrine is more light-resistant than many other quartzes, intense UV radiation can slightly alter the color over a long period.
3. Store the piece separately from harder minerals to avoid scratches.
4. For energetic cleansing, moonlight, singing bowls, or briefly placing it on selenite are suitable methods.
