Item Description
A classic and outstanding Sunnyside Mine rhodochrosite miniature. The sharp, lustrous, pretty pastel-pink, rhomb adroitly rests on a thin crust of rhodochrosite. This very fine cutie is complete all-around and pristine. The sprinkling of sulfides is a nifty accent. It certainly dates to the heyday of this well-known Colorado locale. Ex Jaime Bird Collection. Valued at $600-750.
