These beads feature a very rare needle arrangement and are traded at a high price per gram among golden rutile quartz. The rutile, resembling a fireworks star mine, is bundled and arranged radially (radiating) on one side. Rutile quartz, worn by Chinese expatriates to display their wealth, gained attention as a talisman to improve business luck. Favored by many wealthy individuals and business people, in recent years, there has been a growing interest in items with unique characteristics that others don't possess. This type is highly sought after by such individuals. Basically, when processing golden rutile, the buyer needs to be prepared, such as purchasing raw stones by the ton. They don't accommodate the Japanese way of buying, such as wanting to process only beautiful individual pieces. The business is based on purchasing in bulk, polishing everything into beads, and selling the high-quality pieces at a premium. Those with almost no cloudiness in the crystal and clear needles are called "taijin" and are particularly valuable. This one is polished so that the needles intentionally concentrate radially on one side. It's a bead that even showcases the sense of the craftsman. This grade is usually only sold as a bracelet, but we are offering it from a single bead. We would normally sell it for over 50,000 yen, but we are offering it at a special price, so please consider it. (Bead size) 16.5 mm Shipping will be via Mercari with tracking.
