RUTILATED STAR PENDANT WITH DIAMONDS
Novo Horizonte, Bahia, Northeast Region, Brazil
An extremely rare 6-rayed Rutilated "Star" has been captured in an undulating gemstone of water-clear Quartz. The broad, golden Rutile needles are very bright and radiate from a matching silver-grey metallic Hematite star. This fine gemstone has been well polished, highlighting the "Star" to its best advantage. Rutilated "Stars" make up less than 2% of total Rutilated Quartz production, and complete "Stars" are even rarer. This fine jewelry masterpiece is accented with .93 carats of diamonds, skillfully inset in 18K white gold, all of which is encased in a custom 18K yellow gold bezel with matching bale. Overall dimensions of this fine pendant are a sizable 3 x 2 inches.
