Item Description
Stunning, and really quite remarkable, Rhodochrosite replacing a clamshell from the famous Kerch Peninsula in the Crimea. The preservation and quality of this specimen is superb. The color is very good, the ridges are razor sharp, and it is completely intact. Quite amazing oddity from finds of the late 1990s to early 2000s. valued $400-500
