Rutile, or Rutilated Quartz, is a beautiful crystal formation that displays beautiful formations within the quartz stone. Each stone shows vivid displays of golden "needles" just beneath its surface that are often known as Venus hair, formations of black and green tourmaline captured within its formation, and similar such beauty that can`t help to stir the imagination. Rutile is a stone that can be used for meditation and dreams, it can be a powerful aid while communicating with spirits, and is sometimes used as a protection stone to keep away anxiety, depression, fear, and other such negative emotions that can wear an individual down. Each bulk package contains 1 lb of Rutile tumbled stones, with each stone varying in size from 1/2" in diameter to 1 1/2". Exact quantities and varieties may vary.
