This characteristic can appear when suitable stones are cut ''en cabochon'' (ie: shaped and polished, not faceted.) Gemstones that exhibit this effect are referred to as asteria or star-stone.

			The star-effect (asterism) is caused by a difference in refractive properties between the host material and that of the dense inclusions of rutile or "silk" (read: titanium dioxide).

Some star sapphires contain both hematite and rutile, resulting in a 12-ray star to appear.


			There are two types of asterism:
			* Epiasterism - seen in sapphire and most other gems. This is the result of a reflection of light on parallel arranged inclusions inside the gemstone.
			* Diasterism - seen in rose quartz. This is the result of light transmitted through the stone. In order to see the asterism effect at all, the stone must be illuminated from behind. (Rose quartz also exhibits epiasterism.)
