Rhodochrosite twin (classic locale)

Item Description

Twinned rhodochrosite rhombs of this classic style were collected in the 1970s. The lustrous, reddish-brown rhomb, with translucent areas, has the nifty twinned termination face with three of the four prism faces being intact. An out-of-sight back face is cleaved. The two noted contacts have very minimal impact to the fine quality of this desirable piece.
