Details
This one-of-a-kind natural raw Gold Rutilated Quartz specimen is a compact, densely included crystal featuring an abundance of exceptionally fine, golden-yellow Rutile needles resembling delicate angel hair woven throughout the translucent light Smoky Quartz. Its irregular, somewhat chunky formation appears to be a surviving section of a larger Quartz crystal, with multiple natural crystal faces, angular surfaces and intricate etchings, although the original termination is no longer present. The fine golden Rutile forms beautiful intersecting strands and densely woven, hairlike patterns visible through the crystal faces, with additional mineral inclusions adding depth and character. Particularly striking are the metallic Hematite formations concentrated within natural nooks, crevices and recessed areas, displaying shiny layered surfaces, dark gunmetal gray to silvery reflections and brilliant mirrorlike flashes. When moved under direct lighting, these reflective Hematite surfaces catch surrounding light and colors, creating an ever-changing display of metallic sparkle against the warm golden Rutile and translucent Quartz. Despite its smaller size, this substantial little specimen is packed with fascinating natural details and is especially captivating when examined in person under direct light.
