Rutilated Quartz Tumble Stone

The golden brown needles in Rutilated Quartz are caused by the presence of Rutile or Titanium oxide. Rutilated Quartz is said to be life sustaining and to be capable of restoring a person's vitality and vibrancy. Carrying it or wearing it is also said to encourage an optimistic outlook and to help to conquer fears, anxieties and phobias. It is believed to be useful in alleviating depression and to have the power to soothe dark moods.

Rutilated Quartz is also said to aid the swift transition from one idea to the next and for this reason may be a useful crystal to take into an exam.

In crystal healing Rutilated Quartz is said to encourage tissue regeneration and to stimulate and balance the thyroid. It is also believed to be helpful for treating exhaustion and energy depletion.

Tumble stones are crystals that have been polished by turning in a large drum with water and a grinding or polishing powder. This results in a smooth and tactile stone that is enticing to touch and hold and often has an increased radiance and beauty compared to its natural form.
Tumble stones are usually an ideal size to keep in your pocket or in a pouch and for placing on or around the body during crystal healing.
