Item Description

A showy Brazilian rutilated quartz specimen from the Richard Hauck Quartz collection. Brilliant, golden rutile needles to 3.0 cm are nicely clustered in a gem, water-clear, quartz crystal. The frontal display faces have only trivial bruising. Contacting, with some bruising is out-of-sight on the back. Rutilated quartz specimens of this quality are not that common and are highly desirable. Old material.
