Rutilated Quartz

Rutilated Quartz is a variety of quartz
containing needle-like inclusions of rutile within the crystal.

These fine strands can appear in gold, copper, black,
or even silvery tones — depending on the composition of the inclusions
and how they formed over time.

Rather than sitting on the surface,
the rutile grows inside the quartz,
creating layered, thread-like patterns that are visible from every angle.

No two pieces form the same way.

Some are light and open, with just a few delicate strands.
Others are dense and structured, with intersecting lines running through the crystal.
