What is citrine, and how is it related to quartz?

Citrine is the yellow to golden variety of quartz, which is silicon dioxide. The card heading reads Natural Citrine Quartz, and the listed specific gravity of 2.65 closely matches typical quartz.

What does colour zoning mean?

Colour zoning means the colour is not spread evenly, so some areas look deeper yellow than others. The card records it, and the photo shows golden edges fading toward a paler centre. It is a common feature in citrine.

Is citrine commonly heat treated?

Natural citrine is rare; much of the citrine sold in the trade is heat-treated amethyst. Treatment is not specified on this card, so we do not describe the stone as untreated. For certainty, request an independent laboratory report.

Which jewellery suits an elongated oval?

A long oval suits a pendant or a ring set lengthwise. Gold tones complement yellow citrine. Dimensions are not provided, so ask us for length, width and depth before a jeweller prepares the setting.

Is citrine the same as yellow sapphire in Vedic practice?

No. Yellow sapphire (Pukhraj) is corundum, while citrine is quartz. Citrine is often described in trade tradition as an alternative linked with Jupiter, but that is a belief, not an established rule or personal advice.

How should I clean citrine?

Quartz is hard at about 7 on the Mohs scale, yet sudden heat and long sun exposure can fade some citrine. Clean with mild soapy water and a soft brush, rinse well, and store away from direct light.
