Red Rutilated Quartz Tumbled Stone - 15-30 mm

Red Rutilated Quartz Tumbled Stone, a smooth polished piece of clear to milky quartz threaded with fine red rutile needles. Each stone is tumbled to a rounded shape and a glossy polish that highlights the red inclusions inside. It sits comfortably in the hand or pocket.

Red Rutilated Quartz is traditionally associated with clarity paired with passion and vitality, and is commonly used as an energizing, motivating stone. People often hold it for a lift in drive, keep it close while working towards a goal, or carry it for a sense of grounded energy. The red needles make it visually striking.

Each Red Rutilated Quartz Tumbled Stone is natural, so the density and pattern of the red needles vary from one piece to the next.

Geological Information
Red Rutilated Quartz is clear quartz, silicon dioxide at Mohs 7, threaded with fine red to copper-toned rutile needle inclusions that formed within the crystal during growth. The red colour of the rutile comes from hematite or iron oxide content, and the two minerals occur together as a natural combination rather than any treatment. The clear quartz frames the fine red needles and is traditionally seen to amplify their warming, energizing character. Red rutile has long been linked with fire and passion, and with courage and vital, warrior-like energy. The material is found in deposits worldwide.

Natural variations in colour, structure, inclusions, and surface features are inherent to geological materials and contribute to the individuality of each piece. Any known treatments, enhancements, stabilization, or man-made characteristics are clearly disclosed within the product information where applicable. Every piece is inspected and photographed to reflect its true character; however, lighting conditions, screen settings, and natural variation may cause slight differences in appearance.
