Brookite and Rutile inside a double terminated, clear Quartz crystal. Many collectors love the beauty of thin delicate crystals but worry
about fragility. Here you get the beauty of the delicate Rutile crystals, but all safely enclosed within the Quartz. The Rutile occurs
as golden hair-like crystals growing off the Brookite. Brookite and Rutile are both polymorphs of titanium dioxide. The Quartz is not
complete but still makes for a beautiful and interesting specimen.
