Rutilated Quartz

Rutilated Quartz forms when rutile, a naturally occurring titanium dioxide mineral, is trapped within quartz crystals during their formation. Over millions of years, these rutile inclusions grow into fine, hair-like fibers, creating a unique and striking pattern of golden, silver, or red strands within the crystal.

The defining feature of Rutilated Quartz is its internal rutile inclusions, which create intricate, hair-like patterns that can vary in color from golden to deep red. Each stone is completely unique, with its own distinct arrangement of rutile strands, making every piece a one-of-a-kind gem.

To preserve your crystals and stones, avoid harsh chemicals, sharp objects, and extreme temperatures. Clean them gently with a soft cloth and store them in a padded pouch. For purification, place them in sunlight for 1-2 hours (morning/late day) or under moonlight overnight. Be mindful that some stones may fade with prolonged sun exposure.
