Item Description

A juicy, dark cherry-red rhodo rhomb from recent Chinese finds. This translucent crystal has top color and nice form. The bit of matrix on one face adds character. Several of the faces are cleaved, but is certainly not a detraction. A highly representative example of the species and locale.
