Rutile (twinned group)

Item Description

We're big fans of the Rutiles from Diamantina. They are some of the most well-known crystallized examples of the species from any world locality. Here we have a lovely thumbnail sized speicmen with a red metallic exterior and beautiful "Sagenite"-esque crosshatch reticulated twinning. Good luster and sharp faces as well. The piece appears to be crystallized all around, and I can't find any major damage looking closely with a loupe, only a few small areas of incomplete growth. One does not see a lot of these Rutiles on the market these days, and this is a good opportunity to pick up a nice example for your collection.
