Raw Citrine Crystal Specimen

This item is a raw, unpolished mineral specimen, identified as a Citrine crystal due to its distinct golden-yellow to honey-brown coloration. It is presented resting within the palm of a hand, suggesting its size to be approximately 3-5 centimeters in its longest dimension, fitting comfortably as a small to medium-sized hand specimen. The crystal exhibits an irregular, organic shape, indicative of its natural formation, complete with a mix of naturally terminated faces and fractured surfaces reflecting its geological history. Its clarity ranges from notably translucent to semi-transparent, allowing light to penetrate and reveal inherent internal characteristics. Variations in color saturation are observable, ranging from areas of vibrant golden yellow to slightly deeper, almost amber-like brownish-yellow tones, particularly where the material is denser or contains subtle internal wisps and inclusions. These natural inclusions and fractures are integral to the specimen's unique character and are not considered damage. There are no visible signs of artificial cutting, polishing, or enhancement, confirming its state as a naturally occurring, unworked piece. As a natural geological formation, it bears no manufacturing details, maker's marks, or signatures, and its age is geological, signifying formation over millennia. The specimen appears to be in excellent natural condition, exhibiting no recent chips, cracks, or wear beyond its inherent rough texture and natural crystallization forms, making it a prime example of rough Citrine.
