In crystal tradition it's thought to merge amethyst's association with spiritual clarity and the Crown chakra with citrine's ties to abundance and the Solar Plexus chakra, making it a favorite for anyone drawn to manifestation and abundance work. If you're drawn to amethyst's half of the story, our Amethyst Polished Point (Large) shows that color at a bigger scale. How to use it Display it where both color zones catch the light, hold it during meditation when you want to balance calm reflection with active intention, or keep it on a desk as a reminder to pair clarity with follow-through. As a rough piece, it also makes a distinctive addition to any mineral collection. Care & cleansing Ametrine is a hard, stable quartz variety (Mohs 7) and handles normal handling well. A quick rinse in lukewarm water and a soft cloth is enough; avoid harsh chemicals and prolonged soaking, and keep it out of prolonged direct sunlight, which can fade the color zones over time. Many people also cleanse it with moonlight, sound, or a smudge of smoke. Frequently asked questions What is ametrine?
