Rutile crystals of top quality are rarely found these days at Graves Mountain, because the mine has been closed for so many years.  This is an old timer, which I bought from a Georgia dealer who had it for over 20 years.  The crystal is very sharply formed, with smooth faces and sharp edges and corners with almost no damage.  The metallic luster on this piece is outstanding, and it is a bright silver with a mirror-like reflective shine.
