Gemmology
Rutilated quartz stone, with a hardness of 7 and a specific gravity of 2.65 and belonging to the rhombohedral crystal system, is a transparent or rock crystal, having golden rutile needles inside. Based on titanium oxide, rutile is a mineral. Rare, red or black in color, rutile is included in transparent quartz during the crystallization phase. It then appears, in the form of golden threads or needles, entangled “Opus incertum”. The crystal thus takes on shimmering reflections under the sun, and we speak of golden rutilated quartz. These needles are sometimes called "Hair of Venus", but this stone also has other names: Thetis stone, hair stone or sagenetic quartz. It is possible for other mineral inclusions to occur. Thus, the variety which is called “Arrows of Love” quartz has, instead of rutile needles, dark green or black crystals of tourmaline. They are mainly found in Madagascar, Brazil and India.
