Lustrous, bright pastel-pink rhodochrosite rhombs richly cover the 3-dimensional mounded sphalerite matrix on this very showy, colorful and excellent specimen from the Bob Trimingham Collection. This fine piece is pristine. Choice material from this less well-known Peruvian locale and purchased when the material was coming to market in 1991.
