The history of using yellow crystal to make jewelry has been thousands of years.
The origin of yellow crystal
The best producing areas for citrine are Bolivia, Spain, Madagascar, Mexico, and Uruguay.
The Annasi mine in Bolivia is located at the deepest point of the world's largest freshwater wetland and is an important source of untreated natural yellow crystals.
In the early 17th century, a Spanish conqueror discovered this place. When he married Princess Anahi of the Ayoreos tribe in Paraguay, the mine was given to him as her dowry.
The mine disappeared for over 300 years and was not rediscovered until the 1960s.
A special crystal produced in the Anaxi mine may contain both amethyst and citrine; If both colors appear in the formed gemstone, it is called a amethyst.
The color of the yellow crystal produced by the Anaxi mine is usually orange yellow to brownish yellow/greenish yellow.

How to choose yellow crystal
Color clarity cutting
one
colour
The highest quality yellow crystal has a saturated color and almost no brown content, with a color range ranging from yellow to reddish orange (even orange red).
two
Clarity
Many faceted yellow crystals on the market look clean and flawless, which means they do not contain any visible contents to the naked eye.
Materials containing a small amount of content are usually used to make convex round gemstones or carvings.
The visible contents in light colored gemstones may greatly reduce the value of yellow crystals.
three
cut
Yellowcrystal can be cut into various fancy shapes, including custom cutting.
Many cutting styles are calibrated to the standard millimeter size used in mass market jewelry.
four
polishing
The quality of polishing is another factor that affects the value of crystal products.
Crystals need to be polished with diamond sand during the processing, and rough manufacturing can leave friction marks on the surface of the crystal.
The final polishing step plays a decisive role, and the polished crystals are naturally transparent and have a good luster, which is called "fire head foot" in jargon.
