Item Description
An exceptional 153-gram rutilated quartz from Brazil and the Robert Whitmore Collection. The gem, water-clear, smoky quartz with rich color is beautifully filled with sprays of scintillating, delicate, golden, rutile needles. The sawed and polished, sculptural smoky looks like a large, faceted, gemstone and looks great from either side. Gorgeous and absolutely classic for Brazil. For the size, this is just stunning and rare in quality
