Item Description
A showy large rhodochrosite rhomb from the Wudong Mine of China. The flattened rhomb has excellent luster, translucency and bright rose-red color. One edge is very sharp and is fully terminated. The rest of the crystal appears to be mostly contacted, with very little damage and just a bit of bruising. This is a striking large floater crystal from this find. Valued at $300.
