    Product Description for Min 15.00ct Mm Varies Round Cats Eye Rutilated Quartz

    Most varieties of quartz are prized for having few or no inclusions, which increases their value; rutilated quartz is more valuable and sought after because of its inclusions. These "inclusions" are golden needles of rutile that form different patterns inside the stone, sometimes referred to as "Venus hair." Each pattern is as different as two snowflakes are from each other, and some of them are remarkably beautiful. It is a great collector's stone and ranks 7 on Mohs' hardness scale.

    "I have a stone that is just alittle smaller than this one. I had to tell you how beautiful this stone is,since there is no review.This is stone is amazing.the golden needles ,and red needles look like they are woven togther in the quartz stone, then there is the cats eye effect. It is so rare to find the red needles, it is a must in a gemstone collection. This would be so nice in a pendant. I can look at this stone and never get tired of it.Dont miss out on this one..."
