Golden Rutile Acicular Twinned in Raw Hematite – Silver-Plated Medallion Pendant – White Rhodium Plated Necklace.
Discover and experience the incredible beauty of this LAZZERINI-GEOJOIAS necklace with a vitreous cage pendant of Golden Rutile Acicular Twinned in Raw Hematite! This mineral aggregate is widely considered rare and precious, and its current provenance is almost exclusively from the Ibitiara-Novo Horizonte/BA/BRA region.
It possesses specific physical characteristics and unique visual effects that are unmistakable, making each natural specimen unique. Its striking, peculiar beauty, rarity, golden metallic sheen with bluish-black undertones, and unique patterns contribute to its distinct preciousness.
This cluster of two minerals incorporates the mesmerizing interaction of golden rutile in the form of needles distributed in random formations or grouped in star-like arrangements with bright, tabular, mirror-like metallic hematite, usually in central contact with the needles. This configuration is very unusual, as rutile grows "epitaxally" on hematite.
