Heat Treated Citrine
Jump to:
Citrine, a stunning gemstone frequently found in the market, is often the result of heat-treated Amethyst. Genuine Citrine exhibits a captivating golden amber hue, distinct from the intense neon orange color commonly associated with its heat-treated counterpart. To create this vivid shade, low-grade Amethyst is typically subjected to extremely high temperatures, resulting in a 'burnt' orange color that sets it apart from naturally occurring Citrine.
