Rutile Quartz is a variety of quartz in which thin long needle-like forms of rutile are created within the quartz.
These rutile enclosures resemble beautiful colourful fibres encased within the mineral.
One of the most distinctive features of Rutilated Quartz is that no two stones are alike.
Each stone is unique and hence special. Rutile quartz is also different from other gems as unlike other gems where the more inclusions the less the value, in rutilated quartz the more inclusions the more valuable the stone.
