Is your Citrine natural or heat-treated?
At Brazil Gems®, we clearly identify our Citrine so you know exactly what you're purchasing.
Most of the Citrine available on today's market, including much of the material mined in Brazil, is created by heating natural Amethyst. This process brings out the beautiful golden-yellow to amber colors that customers associate with Citrine.
Heat treatment does not make the crystal fake. It remains a genuine quartz crystal formed by nature, with only its color altered through heat. Whenever applicable, we disclose whether a piece is natural Citrine or heat-treated Citrine in the product description.

How do I clean my citrine cathedral?
Cleaning a Citrine geode is relatively simple. They like water but you don't need to clean it with water often. The goal is to remove dust and grime while preserving the natural luster.
For regular dusting (Recommended):
- Use a soft paintbrush or makeup brush to gently remove dust between the crystal points.
- Compressed air (used lightly) also works well for hard-to-reach areas.
- Finish with a microfiber cloth on the polished edges or base.
For a deeper cleaning:
- Fill a bucket or sink with lukewarm water.
- Add a few drops of mild dish soap.
- Gently scrub the crystals using a soft toothbrush or soft detailing brush.
- Rinse thoroughly with clean water. We suggest a spay bottle with clean water.
- Allow the geode to air dry completely, or use a microfiber towel to remove excess water.
How often to clean?
If the piece is in a home, every 2-3 months is usually enough.
In a high traffic area, perhaps dusting once a month will keep the crystals sparkling.
Are Citrine Cathedrals natural geodes?
Yes, these striking citrine cathedrals have been carefully heat-treated from natural Brazilian amethyst, a traditional process that brings out the warm golden citrine color while preserving the natural crystal structure of the geode.
What are the different types of Amethyst Cathedrals?
Amethyst Cathedral Geodes are sometimes also known as Amethyst Caves or Amethyst Chapels, these geodes are cut in half and opened up for our enjoyment. They are considered "Cathedrals" because of their usually tall and pointy shapes reminiscent of a Cathedral. We offer our Cathedrals in 3 different Product Types:
- Classic Cathedrals: Painted Black on its sides & back
- Open 2-Sided Cathedrals: Similar to the classic but open to be enjoyed from the front or back
- Polished Cathedrals: Fully polished outer shell with some material at the bottom to make it flat
What's the gemstone meaning of Amethyst?
Amethyst has been treasured for centuries and is traditionally associated with peace, clarity, and spiritual growth. Its rich purple color has long symbolized wisdom, balance, and tranquility, making it one of the world's most beloved natural crystals.
Amethyst is commonly believed to symbolize:
💜 Calmness – Encourages relaxation and a peaceful state of mind.
🧘 Inner Peace – Traditionally associated with emotional balance and serenity.
🧠 Clarity – Believed to support clear thinking and thoughtful decision-making.

While many people value Amethyst for these symbolic meanings, these beliefs are rooted in historical traditions and spiritual practices rather than scientific evidence. Whether you cherish Amethyst for its deep purple beauty, its fascinating natural crystal formations, or its traditional symbolism, every piece is a unique gift from nature.
