Item Description

Lustrous, translucent, pretty pastel-pink, rhodochrosite rhombs are aesthetically stacked and clustered on the triangular shard of milky quartz on this showy and excellent combination thumbnail from the famous Sunnyside Mine. Nearly pristine, the large rhomb (1.0 cm on the diagonal) has just a bit of edge cleaving. Classic Colorado.
