Quartz Cabochons

These stones are not available for purchase separately.

I found these beautiful rutilated quartz cabochons in Tucson. Rutilated quartz is transparent rock crystal with golden or red needles of rutile trapped inside, that create beautiful diverse patterns. Some have called it Venus's Hair Stone. The dealers I bought from called the stones with the rosy needles "Amethyst Rutile." There are many varieties of rutilated quartz, I tried to pick out stones with the most beautiful scenes in them.

I am now doing only limited custom work, but if you see a stone you like and are interested in having a piece of jewelry made with it, please email or call me referring to the stone by name and number and we will determine if I can do a custom piece for you.
