Citrine, traditionally known as Sunela in some Indian gemstone practices, is a beautiful variety of quartz admired for its yellow to golden-orange color and bright, warm appearance. Its attractive golden tones and natural brilliance make it a popular choice for jewellery and gemstone collections. Citrine occurs in a range of colors from pale yellow and lemon yellow to rich golden and orange-yellow shades. Its quality is evaluated through factors such as color, clarity, transparency, cut, carat weight, and overall appearance. In traditional gemstone practices, Citrine is associated with abundance, prosperity, confidence, optimism, success, happiness, positive energy, and personal growth. These associations are based on traditional beliefs and should not be considered scientifically established effects. Natural Citrine is relatively uncommon, and much commercial Citrine is produced by heat-treating suitable Amethyst or Smoky Quartz. Therefore, when purchasing Citrine, its natural or treated status should be clearly disclosed and verified through reliable supplier documentation when required. Citrine is commonly used in rings, pendants, earrings, bracelets, and other jewellery because of its vibrant golden color, attractive brilliance, and versatile appearance.
