Care and Cleaning
As the same suggests, lemon quartz is the transparent yellow variety of the mineral family quartz. It is sometimes called lemon citrine but generally citrine has a deeper orangey hue and a stronger saturation than stones marketed lemon quartz.
Lemon or yellow quartz its prized for is subtle light yellow to greenish yellow hues and is pastel tones.
Like most quartz, lemon quartz is treated to create or enhance its colour. The treatments are stable (permanent) during normal everyday wear but prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or strong and hot artificial light should be avoided as this can cause the colour to fade.
Quartz also doesn’t react well to sudden temperature changes or extremely high temperatures. For this reason quartz should not be ultrasonic or steam cleaned. You can clean your quartz jewellery at home with a soft brush and warm soapy water or with a gemstone and jewellery cloth or dip that are available to buy from us.
Quartz is a relatively hard gem and is great for everyday wear if worn with care. We recommend storing your quartz jewellery away from harder gemstone that may scratch it, such as diamond, sapphire and ruby.
