Rutile Quartz Collectors Piece, Triangle Cut 198.2 Carat
About the Item
A Collectors Joy! Heavy Triangle Cut Rutile Quartz of 198.2 Carats. As pictured it is 1.75" Wide, by 1.75" Deep by 1.18" Thick. This Lovely Collectors Piece is cut with 3 Facets on the Girdle making it a Triangle Cut. The Crown is faceted with 10 Facets including the Table. The Pavillion has 25 Facets. It is one of three stones cut from a rough piece of Rutellite originating in Mina Gerias Brazil. Rutile Needles are the Crystalline form of Titanium Dioxide. Rutile Needles are the source of Asterism in Gemstones such as Star Ruby, Star Sapphire and Star Quartz. Rutile in gemstones is caused by the presence of rutile inclusions within the gemstone. Rutile is a mineral that often forms needle-like crystals within other minerals, including gemstones. When light interacts with these rutile inclusions, it can create a unique optical effect known as the rutile effect. This effect is characterized by the appearance of a silky or metallic sheen, often in the form of fine lines or streaks, within the gemstone. The rutile effect can add depth and visual interest to gemstones, enhancing their overall beauty.

Kary Adam
Originally from San Diego, California, Kary Adam lived in the “Gem Capital of the World” - Bangkok, Thailand, sourcing local gem stones and working with local Metal Smiths on his designs from 2001 until August 2015. He now lives and works from Seattle Washington and make frequent trips to Thailand where he continues to source stones and execute most of his custom jewelry work.
His relationship with Gems and Jewelry started in 1997 when he took a trip to Asia and stopped in Bangkok for 2 weeks. While he was there, he bought a 23kt Thai gold necklace, something he had wanted since he was 14 years old and seen at a gem show in San Diego. On his first day back to work from that Asia trip, seven co-workers asked him to sell them his gold necklace. This gave him the idea that he should supply them with what they had asked for. Three months later he was back in Bangkok and bought more Thai Gold Jewelry and several loose Sapphires. This led to several years of traveling back and forth, buying and learning about gemstones and gold, designing and having jewelry made, and selling the jewelry he had made in Bangkok back in the USA and the UK. In July of 2001, he moved to Bangkok to study Gemology graduating with a degree in Gemology from the Asian Institute of Gemological Science. He also taught gemology classes for 2 years before focusing only on design and production. He continues his passion for designing Unique Beautiful Custom Jewelry and he has been doing this ever since.
