Today we are highlighting Citrine and Baltic Amber showcased in these lovely drop earrings created with copper.
Citrine has a hardness of 7 on the Mohs
scale and is from the quartz family. The colour of citrine can vary from light
yellow to a light orange-yellow. Most citrine on the market is heated amethyst
which may have been treated naturally by Mother Nature or may have been treated
by we humans. Heated Amethyst, sold as
citrine, can range in colour from dark yellow to a dark red-yellow. Smokey quartz can also be treated to turn
yellow. According to minerals.net, all heat-treated “citrine” has a red tint.
Some very light natural Citrine can be sold under the name of “Lemon Quartz”.
Citrine is known as the "success"
stone and for its abundance qualities. It is also associated with happiness and
is said to increase and clarify personal power and energy.
Baltic Amber is a fossilized tree resin that
is used similar to any crystal, mineral or stone in jewellery creation. Baltic
Amber has a hardness ranging from 2 to 2.5 on the Mohs scale.
Baltic Amber is associated with desire,
sensuality and romantic tenderness. It is said that it is used to find lasting
love.
Citrine is connected to the Solar Plexus
chakra. Baltic Amber reactivates the Sacral Chakra and is used to cleanse all
chakras.
