Citrine is a variety of quartz whose shades range from pale yellow to deep amber, evoking the golden light of the sun. It is prized for its warm energy and its historical ties to wealth and success. Its name comes from the French word lemon, referring to its bright and cheerful color.
Used since antiquity by the Greeks and Romans, citrine was believed to bring protection and vitality. It experienced a resurgence in popularity during the Art Deco period and remains highly valued today in lithotherapy and feng shui. Linked to the solar plexus chakra, it stimulates willpower, motivation, and confidence.
Often worn as a talisman or placed in a living space to attract prosperity, citrine is also unique in that it does not retain negative energies — it therefore does not require purification. Whether to encourage optimism, foster new ideas, or support your personal radiance, citrine is a luminous ally in daily life.
