Description
This pendant features a crystal of red rutile from North Carolina. The crystal weighs in at 7 carats & is set in solid sterling silver wire. Rutile is more often thought of as an inclusion in quartz, where it forms red or golden needles. It can, however, form on its own. in these cases its high, metallic luster & flashes of deep red color make for a striking gem. This crystal comes from Hiddenite, NC, a town well known both for its emeralds and, as you might guess, its hiddenite. These rare prismatic crystals are a signature for this unique locale. This one has a rich, deep red color which looks black in most lighting conditions, brilliant crystal faces & a classic double-twinned form.
