VINTAGE Rutillated Quartz FOCAL Cab GOLD Needles 166.50cts pkg1 1975 RQ14
Description
This vintage rutillated quartz cabochon comes from a private collection put away more than 30 years ago!I have a few others also listed under cabochons in my shop so please have a look if you are interested in this type of gorgeous vintage specimen!
Much of the rutillated quartz in the current market comes from China. The classic material, and the best, came from Brazil in the 1970's. This lovely high domed cabochon is from Minas Gerais, Brazil and represents the best of the original production.
This cabochone measures 48mm x 35mm x12mm and would be ideal for wire wrapping or bezel setting. It weighs 166.50 carats!
In other words, this gorgeous specimen is just under 2" across and 1 1/2" tall and 1/2" thick!
The material is very transparent with minimal flaws . The rutile is in scattered needles and bundles with a prominent 'star burst' emanating from a metallic rutile crystal at the bottom.
Price is for this one EXCEPTIONAL vintage cabochon which we 100% guarantee to be vintage from the 1970's and mined in Brazil!
You'll never see cabochons of this quality nowadays at your neighborhood "gem show"!
