Rutile & Quartz (uncommon locale from late 1990s)

Item Description

A beautiful, splendent, sharp and sharply terminated, tabular rutile crystal, 2.3 x 1.6 x 0.7 cm, is aesthetically set upright in matrix and complimented with quartz points and another small rutile blade. These came out in the late 1990s in one small batch, and are now rarely available. A very trivial bit of bruising to the termination edges and the tip are noted, but very minimal impact to the fine quality of this rare and excellent combination piece. valued $300-400. Ex Bob Trimingham Collection.
