Rutilated Quartz Cabochons
A gorgeous selection of A grade Rutilated Quartz cabochons. These really are stunning pieces with excellent clarity - it's just a shame they're not calibrated, really.
Our freeform cabochons are sold singly as they are simply unique!
Rutilated Quartz is caused by the inclusion of thin golden needles of Rutile (Titanium Dioxide) into Quartz crystals.
- #1 - 16x10.5x6.5MM - a nice teardrop cut cabochon with very obvious if somewhat indistinct rutilations.
- #2 - 27.5x19x5.8MM - a nice teardrop cabochon, one of my favourites, with somewhat subtle horizontal needles of Rutile.
- #5 - 18.5x11.5x6.1MM - a good clear teardrop cab with obvious rutilations.
- #6 - 17.5x12.7x4.4MM - a strongly rutilated teardrop with a few fractures and inclusions.
- #7 - 17.5x10x5.7MM - a good horizontally rutilated oval cabochon with a few internal fractures.
- #12 - 31x11.8x3.5MM - minimal, quite thin rutilations in a teardrop cabochon.
- #13 - 17.3x9.3x4.1MM - this rectangular cabochon has some nice bright golden rutilations, but unfortunately not too many of them.
- #14 - 24.2x13.3x6.8MM - a clear teardrop cab with some minor rutilations and other inclusions/fractures.
- #15 - 25.7x14.5x7.7MM - an interesting teardrop cabochon with straw yellow rutile.
- #17 - 13.8x13.8x5.7MM - a mixed up teardrop with plenty of rutilations.
- #18 - 11.8x8x5.7MM - a mixed up teardrop with plenty of rutilations.
- #19 - 29.7x12.6x8.2MM - a mixed up teardrop with plenty of rutilations.
- #20 - 34.8x16.6x7MM - a rather nice marquise shape, plenty of clarity, a nice bright stone.
- Various sizes of calibrated cabochons, where stocks are available. Our grading structure is A-C, where A are the clearest and nicest, and C are slightly cloudy and may have less inclusions.
Frequently asked questions and delivery information
How do we grade stones?
There is no overall universal grading system for the majority of our products. As such, the grades we use are internal only. They simply refer to higher and lower qualities, but they may be entirely different grades to other websites. C grade pieces are of lower quality than B grade, which is lower than A grade.
How does our ordering and delivery process work?
You place an order via the website. When it’s been picked and packed, your order will be marked as completed and dropped off at our local post office. We have an account with the post office called a “Drop and Go” account, which allows the post office staff to process our parcels when they have free time, rather than me queuing up and delaying everyone else.
I get tracking information etc online when this has been completed. I typically do not send tracking information to customers unless they request it – but if you’ve requested tracked postage, it has been sent tracked! If you have any worries or concerns about your parcel being delayed please feel free to get in touch and I’ll send the tracking info over! We also get delivery confirmations for parcels over 25MM thick by default.
How do international orders work?
After Brexit, with the UK leaving the European Union, certain things have changed with regards to international orders. European Union customers will now likely be liable to pay the same amount of import VAT as any other international customers. You will be responsible for any customs and import fees.
I’d like to return my order for a refund.
No problem at all – just get in touch and we’ll arrange it. You can read our full returns policy here.
What payment methods do you accept?
I can accept Paypal, Stripe, cheque, and direct bank transfers. Paypal and Stripe will both allow you to pay with credit and debit cards.
