One of such a unique stone is rutilated quartz, which is a rather rare gemstone and has special characteristics named to it. For starters, it is an inclusion of one mineral into another, which is why it has a unique value attached to it. What is even more attractive is its appearance and usages. Golden rutilated quartz beads are largely favoured by jewelry makers in bracelets and necklaces. Let’s learn in detail about these wonders of nature.

About Rutilated Quartz Beads

Rutilated quartz are found in many places around the globe, but primarily in Brazil, Madagascar, Spain and Russia. These have been used since ancient times for ornament and decorative making and also, as curing stones. With a long history and rare existence, these gemstones are semi-precious and are quite affordable. The name signifies the presence of two minerals in one stone which are, quartz and rutile. Rutile is a titanium dioxide mineral, which gets included in quartz minerals to form needle-like natural designs across the interiors of the otherwise transparent quartz. The color of this inclusion is generally golden, blood or copper red, silver or deeper black. This color depends on the iron oxide content of the rutile. In case there is a large iron oxide content, the inclusions are golden and blood red colors. But if the iron oxide content is less, the inclusions are of darker red or black colors. The most beautiful inclusions are golden in color and the golden rutilated quartz beads are the most favoured of all other types. It is interesting to note that such inclusions in precious gemstones like Diamonds are highly unfavourable and lower their value. But in the case of quartz or other semi-precious stones, these inclusions add to the desirability and beauty of them, causing their value to increase.
