Bring the shine of gemstones to your designs with these Golden Rhutilated Quartz beads from Dakota Stones. These beads feature a classic round shape and a clear color with hints of gold. Golden Rutilated Quartz is a silicon dioxide mineral with unique needle-like inclusions of Rutile. These “needles” usually appear golden, but can also appear silver, red, copper, or black and can be distributed randomly or in bundles or star-like formations. Rutile is the mineral name for natural crystals of titanium dioxide, which may contain iron oxide.
Because gemstones are natural materials, appearances may vary from piece to piece.
