Stone name: Rutile Quartz
Origin: Brazil
Size: W3.2×D1.5×H0.8cm
This unique quartz is created when gold or reddish-brown needle-like rutile runs through the interior of a transparent crystal . In this piece, a single strand of golden rutile runs through the center like a trace of light, adding a bold accent to the crystal’s tranquil inner world.

After working as an assistant of prop and decorations for commercial films, Canna Oshiro studied under Yukio Shimizu who is the first class gem polisher/cutter, and creates loose by the traditional technique of “tesuri” being inherited in Kofu district.
Concentrating on to expressing dynamics and randomness of the work by human hand, facet produced by the unique rhymes educes natural taste of gem which is different from the one from the conventional stylized cut.
