Anyone who deliberately chooses an untreated piece is opting for absolute naturalness, authenticity, and a stone with an unaltered energetic origin. In crystal lore, citrine is traditionally considered a stone of joy of life, creativity, and inner strength. According to tradition, it is said to promote positive energy and strengthen the solar plexus – which is why it has been valued in holistic practice for centuries. We would like to emphasize: these attributions stem from spiritual tradition and are not medical claims.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eUse \u0026amp; Care of Untreated Citrine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis natural citrine is suitable for everyday use in many ways – whether as a decorative object in the living space, as a personal companion on the desk, or as a powerful collector's item. Since citrine belongs to the quartz family, it is robust and easy to care for. A few important care tips:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCitrine is sensitive to light – prolonged direct sunlight can lighten the natural color over time.
