This exceptional piece impresses with its clarity and the impressive phantom layers visible within. Citrine is a truly rare and valuable gem for collectors and enthusiasts.
The phantom layers within the crystal reveal previous growth phases and give the stone a special depth and dimension. The clearer and more luminous the crystal, the more valuable and desirable it is.
Formation: Citrine is a variety of quartz that forms through the natural heating of amethyst or smoky quartz in the Earth's crust. The yellow color is caused by iron impurities in the crystal lattice. Phantom crystals are formed by interruptions in the growth process, where layers of other minerals are deposited before the citrine continues to grow. These ghost images of previous growth phases give phantom citrine its unique and intriguing structure.
Meaning and Uses: Citrine is often considered a stone of prosperity and abundance. It is said to promote positive energies and ward off negative ones. The phantom layers enhance the stone's energetic effect, making it a special highlight in any collection.
